Which rather surprised me as how it could use *SYS naming

naming it said to hell with with *SYS naming? Because if I change it to

and still use *sys it works also. Did they deprecate NAMING(...) and use
some intelligence instead?


What happens here is that the System naming convention (*SYS) was expanded
to allow either the dot(.) or the slash (/) for name qualification (?).
Doesn't work the other way around, though (using / with *SQL naming)

There is a wonderfully long IBM URL for that:

And a really nice and short TinyURL :
