to set the client application name that is sent to a database through DB2 Connect™ or DB2® database products. Applications that do not
specify the application name by default can use this keyword to provide
this information.

- ClientApplName = application name
- Default setting:
- None
- Applicable when:
- Connected to a database using DB2 Connect or DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows database products.

- Usage notes:
-
Note the following conditions:
- Some servers might not be able to handle the entire length of
the value and might truncate it.
- DB2 for z/OS® and OS/390® servers support a length
of up to 32 characters.
- In DB2 Version
9.7 Fix Pack 6 and later, CLI applications
can set the ClientApplName keyword on DB2 for i V6R1
and later servers. DB2 for i servers
support a length of up to 255 characters.
- To ensure that the data is converted correctly when transmitted
to a host system, use only the characters A - Z and 0 - 9 and the
underscore (_) or period (.).
