return fewer rows for the index than indicated by the FUP INFO command. The row 
count continues to grow in the base table, but remains the same for the index.
You can avoid this problem by always using the KEYTAG clause in the CREATE 
INDEX command to define a meaningful key specifier for each index you create.
If you encounter the problem described above, use SQLCI to DROP and re-CREATE 
the offending indexes, doing so in the proper creation order. The following annotated 
output illustrates the necessary index creation order:
