DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC76502 Status: Closed

THE NAME OF THE .ZIP FILE CREATED BY DB2SUPPORT MAY BE TRUNCATED

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
The name of the .zip file created by db2support has a maximum 
size of 32 bytes, which is not big enough for all cases. 
 
E.g. 
When db2support is run with '-global' option the name of the 
.zip file is db2support_<hostname>_full.zip. When the host name 
is big enough for the name of the .zip file to exceed 32 bytes 
the output file could be something like this: 
"db2support_<hostname>_full."
