Error description

• When connected to a DB2 for Linux, Unix and Windows database
  V9.7 FP1, the iSeries client gets the error message SQL9004
  ("Create of SQL package failed."). DDM trace of this scenario
  shows that the attempt to create a package failed because of a
  DRDA protocol error (sqlcode -30020) detected by the iSeries
  client while it was parsing the reply received from the DB2 LUW
  server.
