PI64083: VSAM REDIRECTOR DBHANDLER DOES NOT ALLOW TO SPECIFY ADDITIONAL CONNECTION PROPERTIES IN THE JDBC URL FOR MS SQL SERVER DRIVER

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The VSAM Redirector handler "DBHander" does not allow to
  specify additional connection properties in the JDBC URL for
  the Microsoft SQl Server JDBC Driver. It only allows to specify
  one singe connection property, which must be the "DatabaseName"
  property. Any additional properties are incorrectly treated as
  separate options of the OPTION string.
