I have been working though a strange case, seems specific to Exadata 12c.
I have simplified as much as possible for now, testcase below.
Obviously we are following up with Oracle support, but wonder if anyone is
able to confirm what we are seeing.
And/Or anybody want to hazard a guess as to what is going wrong?
TIA
Patrick
CREATE TABLE TEST_FACT(CHRTYPE VARCHAR2(3), RATE NUMBER)
INSERT INTO TEST_FACT VALUES('R03', 1.3)
INSERT INTO TEST_FACT VALUES('R03', 1.3)
INSERT INTO TEST_FACT VALUES('LDU', 0.21)
COMMIT;
SELECT SUM(
CASE
WHEN (CHRTYPE = 'R03' OR CHRTYPE = 'LDU')
THEN RATE /10
END )
FROM TEST_FACT;
Result on 11.2.0.4.4 and 12.1.0.2.3 (Linux)
0.281
12.1.0.2.7 (Exadata)
-8.70E+103
