  * USERS AFFECTED: All Z APM Connect v6.1.0 users.              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 1 - zAPM Connect DB2 SQL call routine   *
  *                      is passing back to caller an invalid    *
  *                      return code in some instances, which    *
  *                      can cause a User Error message to be    *
  *                      reported.                               *
  *                                                              *
  *                      2 - IMS Connect clientid in lower       *
  *                      case causes a mismatch between IMS      *
  *                      Connect and IMS in the Horizontal       *
  *                      links.                                  *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply this PTF.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  1 - DB2 DB exit passes back invalid return code in some
  instances.
  
  2 - IMS Connect clientid in lower case causes a mismatch
  between IMS Connect and IMS zAPM Horizontal link events causing
  transactions not to be reported on the UI.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1 - DB2 exit always passes back IMS database call return code
  from application.
  
  2 - Clientid is converted to upper case in zAPM Connect like
  is done in IMS Connect.
