Problem summary


    

  • ****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All users of File Manager DB2 component.     *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 1. File Manager DB2 component does not  *
*                      support edit of DB2 clone or history    *
*                      tables.                                 *
*                      2. Differences between the output files *
*                      produced by FM/DB2 export in DB2 unload *
*                      format, and the DB2 unload utility.     *

* RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
****************************************************************
1. The existing processing logic supports edit of synonymns,
aliases, tables and views only.
2.
a. The DB2 unload utility produces a VB file, the FM/DB2 export
utility produces an FB file.
b. The DB2 unload utility pads VARBINARY fields with binary
zeroes, the FM/DB2 export utility pads VARBINARY fields with
spaces.
c. The DB2 unload utility sets the length for ROWID fields to
40.  The FM/DB2 export utility sets the length for ROWID
fields to the actual length of the data, typically less than
40 bytes.
