Enhancement Number
Cause
Resolution
Enhancement request DD00059520 has been implemented.

Upgrade to OpenAccess SDK 7.0 GA or later. When ASCE|DESC is not specified explicitly then ASC is used by default.

Fixed in OpenAccess SDK 7.0. Refer to “OpenAccess SDK hot fix download and install instructions” for instructions on how to download and install the hot fix.
Workaround
ASC|DESC for all ORDER BY elements should be explicitly specified: 

'select p_size, p_partkey from part oder by p_size desc, p_partkey asc'
