Restrictions on Db2 object names

Db2 Admin Tool puts the following restrictions on Db2 object names.

Restrictions:
  • Do not use object names that contain Unicode characters that cannot be translated into the EBCDIC CCSID that Db2 Admin Tool is using.
  • Do not use object names that contain an apostrophe (').

Object names that contain these characters can be displayed, but when a line command is used with either of the restricted object names, an error (SQLCODE -104) or warning message might be displayed.
