Re: Run SQL Scripts using qsys2.qcmdexc

I think Birgitta shot at the target. There may be a PTF issue. There are
two overloaded versions of QCMDEXC. One is a procedure which does not
return a value, and a scalar function version which does return an
integer. If the CALL to the procedure works and the invocation to the
scalar function does not, it means the scalar function version is not on
the system somehow for some reason. Recommended to review PTF levels and
patches.

COY,AC .. i don’t think SQL knows that syntax. Perhaps you need to
concatenate them. Remember you are giving qcmdexc a string to work with

I am trying to use qcmdexc in a iACS Run SQL Scripts and it is failing

If I run call qsys2.qcmdexc('addlible msddcb'); This works

If I try the following the error indicates it can not find qcmdexc in
qsys2

select A.*,
case
when QSYS2.QCMDEXC('call ' || 'PROGRAM ' || '(' || COY, AC || ')' ) =
1 then 'Success'
else 'Failed'
end as "Status"
from msddcb.accountsn A;

I have tried putting call in front but that made no difference

What am I missing ?

I copied this basically from an example I found.

The error is

select A.*, case when qsys2.qcmdexc('addlible msddcb') = 1 then 'Success'
else 'Failed' end as "Status" from msddcb.accountsn A SQL State: 42704
Vendor Code: -204 Message: [SQL0204] QCMDEXC in QSYS2 type *N not found.
Cause . . . . . : QCMDEXC in QSYS2 type *N was not found. If the member
name is *ALL, the table is not partitioned. If this is an ALTER TABLE
statement and the type is *N, a constraint or partition was not found. If
this is not an ALTER TABLE statement and the type is *N, a function,
procedure, trigger or sequence object was not found. If a function was

not

found, QCMDEXC is the service program that contains the function. The
function will not be found unless the external name and usage name match
exactly. Examine the job log for a message that gives more details on
which function name is being searched for and the name that did not

match.

Recovery . . . : Change the name and try the request again. If the
object is a node group, ensure that the DB2 Multisystem product is
installed on your system and create a nodegroup with the CRTNODGRP CL
command. If an external function was not found, be sure that the case of
the EXTERNAL NAME on the CREATE FUNCTION statement exactly matches the
case of the name exported by the service program. Failed statements: 1
