Error description

  • When doing an import metadata from an iSeries database into the
repository through IMAM it fails with the below example error:

There was an error discovering the tables using the
connector.com.ibm.iis.cas.shared.ConnectorServiceException: DB2
function SQLExecute failed:  SQLSTATE = 42S02: Native Error Code
= -204: Msg = [IBM][CLI Driver][AS] SQL0204N  "SYSCAT.TABLES" is
an undefined name.  SQLSTATE=42704

Problem summary


    

  • imam db2 connector import from iseries fails

BMDI support was not there in DB2 connector for iSeries. Hence
the issue.

    



Problem conclusion


    

  • As part of the fix, a new CAS property "cas.import.traditional"
is introduced to switch between traditional import and bulk
import.
For this, customer has to set this property to true (or 1) at
ASBServer if they are connecting to iSeries,
so that connector gets invoked in a traditional import mode.
Otherwise (for any other value), connector gets
invoked in a bulk import mode if CAS/IMAM finds a
BulkDataCollections class in connector descriptor (which is an
existing behavior).
