SYMPTOMS
Queries containing the LIKE operator in a where clause, using a wildcard search, concatenated with the base column value, on a column involved in an index may produce inconsistent row patterns.

The following query is an example of when this problem may occur: SELECT * FROM T1 A, T2 B WHERE B.T2ID LIKE A.T1ID +'%' AND A.T1CHAR LIKE 'ABC%'
