DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

When AUTHENTICATION on the database server is set to 
DATA_ENCRYPT, any data transferred between the server and the 
client is encrypted. 
 
It was found that, with DATA_ENCRYPT DB2 LUW client sometimes 
fails to parse the query result, and returns SQL0902C. 
 
The size of the communication buffer is controlled by ASLHEAPSZ 
for local clients. 
For remote client at least a 128K buffer is allocated. 
The issue can be hit by both local and remote client. 
 
Here's the error message that will appear in db2diag.log.

==== 
 
The LUW client in question can be CLP, CLI/ODBC or legacy JDBC 
(using CLI under the covers). JCC type 4 driver does not have 
this problem. 
 
The data in the server is never corrupted. The problem is only 
on the client that fails to parse the encrypted data. Any 
fix pack containing the fix for this problem must be applied to 
clients.

****************************************************************

Local fix: 
If this problem occurs for a local connection, change the value 
of ASLHEAPSZ to any other value eg 8. 
 
For remote client, try changing FetchBufferSize greater than 
128K. 
 
Also note that this problem is only applicable to DATA_ENCRYPT. 
One may choose to change AUTHENTICATION on the server side to 
some other value to work around it.
