DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2

If a locking event monitor is defined to be UNFORMATTED EVENT 
TABLE (rather than TABLE) and EVMON_FORMAT_UE_TO_TABLES is used 
to move the unformatted data into relational tables, NULL values 
are used for columns where data is not available. 
 
However a locking event monitor defined to be TABLE will use 0 
values for numeric columns, empty strings for character columns 
and a value of "0000-00-00-00.00.00.000000" for timestamp 
columns.  These timestamp column values can cause issues when 
exporting / importing the data from the event monitor table. 
 
This APAR modifies locking TABLE event monitor processing to use 
NULL values when data is not available (that is, so that it's 
data matches the data produced by EVMON_FORMAT_UE_TO_TABLES when 
run against a locking UNFORMATTED EVENT TABLE event monitor
