Sybase SQL Error Message

%1 SortMergePass: Merged %2 runs, %3 Secs, %4 runs remaining, %5 reads = %6 M, runlen=%7, phase %8, %9 M on disk

Reason for this Error

This information is provided after each merge pass. One merge pass merges a certain number of runs, using one pinned buffer page per run plus one pinned buffer for the output run. Note that there can be several passes in a merge phase. One merge phase reads all the sort data and produces a new set of runs that provide input to the next phase.
