Symptoms

Assume that you run DBCC CHECKDB or DBCC CHECKTABLE against a database or a table that contains a columnstore index, and the columnstore index contains both positive and negative zero values. In this situation, the DBCC query may return false positives for data corruption. Additionally, when you rebuild the columnstore index, an assertion failure may occur.
