Trading timestamps with DB2 LUW

(Posting to RPG list due to RPGLE web service program to pass timestamp as
parm)
I have a requirement to pass timestamp in a format where I don't see RPGLE
has an option other than generating a text field.
This is the sample provided and through SOAPUI it works
<uws:StartDate>2015-12-08T14:26:46</uws:StartDate>

Every variation I try fails, and I have verified on the target system it is
a "TIMESTAMP".
2015-12-08-14.26.46 fails - (nothing selected)
2015-12-08-14.26.46.000 and .000000 both fail

Am I missing some understanding of timestamps between DB2 for i and DB2 LUW
(and this is either Linux or unix running Websphere with DB2 9.7.x)
or is there some edit possible in a timestamp?
ILE RPG Reference V7R1 says a Timestamp Data Type is always length of 26
and format is
yyyy-mm-dd-hh.mm.ss.mmmmmm
