product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 910 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
Currently, DB2 LOAD's zoneddecimal option only supports the following half-byte sign values: + = 0xC 0xA 0xE 0xF - = 0xD 0xB But in ASCII-encoded environment, a zoned decimal number uses 0x3 and 0x7 for positive and negative half-byte sign values respectively. This APAR adds support for 0x3 and 0x7 to support such encoding. | |
