In the Infocenter IBM encourages you to use the 'select from insert'
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v7r1m0/topic/sqlp/rbafysfins.htm
over the IDENTITY_VAL_LOCAL
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v7r1m0/topic/db2/rbafzscaidentity.htm

"It is recommended that a SELECT FROM INSERT be used to obtain the
assigned value for an identity column. See table-reference for more
information."
