| SAS/ACCESS Interface to DB2 Under z/OS |
SAS/ACCESS Interface to
DB2 under z/OS passes the following
SAS functions to DB2 for processing if the DBMS driver or client that you
are using supports this function. Where the DB2 function name differs from
the SAS function name, the DB2 name appears in parentheses. For more information,
see

SQL_FUNCTIONS=ALL
allows for SAS functions that have slightly different
behavior from corresponding database functions that are passed down to the
database. Only when SQL_FUNCTIONS=ALL can the SAS/ACCESS engine
also pass these SAS SQL functions to DB2. Due to incompatibility in date and
time functions between DB2 and SAS, DB2 might not process them correctly.
Check your results to determine whether these functions are working as expected.

Because none of these functions existed in DB2 before
DB2 V6, these functions are not passed to the DBMS in DB2 V5. These functions
are also not passed to the DBMS when you connect using DRDA because there is no
way to determine what location you are connected to and which functions are
supported there.
These functions are passed to the DBMS
in DB2 V5, as well as DB2 V6 and later. They are not passed to the DBMS when
you connect using DRDA.
