RE: I/O buffer size

[Colin Williams <colin.williams@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Joe,

I think hes refering to the buffer for records read in from the database
file by the file handling routines.

The last I heard, probably on this forum, was that it was 128K!

Have you search the archives, Rick

cheers

According to the V5R2 system limits manual...

http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redpapers/pdfs/redp0204.pdf

...the maximum row size for DB2 is 32K, unless you have LOBs.  The DDS
compiler says the same thing; a record longer than 32766 is invalid.  Is
this what you were asking?
