Error description
When trying to connect the DB2 data store on IA by providing the connection details on Home>Configuration> sources >open details, we getting error. Error: The active DB2 instance is already set to a value
Local fix
Problem summary
DataStage DataConnections are saving a caption field as part of the Value field when saved to Xmeta. When read by IA the field now contains a non-breaking space (0x0A), delimiting the value and DisplayValue causing issues with IA.
Problem conclusion
DisplayValues are never stored in the DataConnection, and are now always read from the associated StageType.
Temporary fix
