Warning: problem with REORG REBUILD WITH ONLINE in 15.7 SP133, SP134

$

A serious bug has been found in 15.7 SP133 and higher (currently SP134 is the only higher release).

 

The problem is seen when (or after) loading a transaction log dump that contains log records for a reorg rebuild with online command.  The known symptoms are either a 3475 error "During redo the page timestamp value is less than old timestamp from log. ..." during recovery of the load transaction, or error 2503 "Table Corrupt: Page linkage is not consistent" reported running dbcc checktable or dbcc checkdb following load transaction.

 

Recommendation:

 

Do not use reorg rebuild with online until an SP containing a fix for this bug has been released and you have upgraded to it.  (Development is currently working on a fix, but it is not yet available).  The regular reorg rebuild can still be run, the problem is limited to the with online option.

 

It is also possible to avoid the issue by downgrading ASE to a version lower than 15.7 SP133.  However, this option is not particularly recommended as SP133/134 contain security fixes.

 

KBA 2168634 http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/2168634 has been published containing this same information.  You can subscribe to the KBA to be automatically notified when the CR is fixed. I will also update this thread when I become aware the CR is fixed.
