Local Fix:
1) Catalog less then 20 Z/OS data sources on the client. 
 
2) If there are more than 20 catalog entries, but cached value 
is less then 20 you will not see DB21018E error. 
 
In order to clear the entries in cache so that there are only 20 
connections, you can remove conlic.bin file from 
~/sqllib/cfgcache to clean the connect license cache.
