You may receive an error message when you use the Microsoft OLE DB provider for DB2 in Host Integration Server 2004 to connect to an IBM DB2 database that is running on an IBM AIX 64-bit system (899272)

SYMPTOMS

When you use the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for DB2 (DB2OLEDB) in Host Integration Server 2004 to connect to an IBM DB2 database that is running on an IBM AIX 64-bit system, the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for DB2 returns an error message that resembles the following:

Could not connect to data source DataSourceName:
One or more errors occurred during processing of command.
A SQL system error has occurred. The current SQL statement cannot be completed successfully.
SQLSTATE: 58004, SQLCODE: -901 SQLSTATE: 58004, SQLCODE -901

Additionally, you may receive a similar error message when you create packages on the IBM AIX 64-bit system.

CAUSE

An IBM DB2 database that is running on an IBM AIX 64-bit system returns the following server class string during the Exchange Server Attributes negotiation:

QDB2/AIX64

The problem that is mentioned in the "Symptoms" section occurs because the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for DB2 does not recognize the "QDB2/AIX64" server class string.

Additionally, the following behavior occurs when you create packages on an IBM AIX 64-bit system:

The provides receives the "QDB2/AIX64" server class string.
The provider sends the AIX system statement.

However, the AIX system statement is not needed on UDB 8. UDB 8 includes IBM AIX 8.0 64-bit. Therefore, you receive the error message that is mentioned in the "Symptoms" section. This error message indicates that an invalid statement is being bound to the package.
