As a further addendum to the issue with library lists - well it was really
just basic logon stuff to solve:

Make sure that the user you are connecting with has a JOBD on their User
Profile which specifies the library(s) you need.

Thanks Mike,

In this case I'm only interested in one record at a time.
From what I've seen / read so far I feel pretty happy about using it.
Without the trigger firing it is processing at about 0.7s for 1000 inserts
which I can live with.

Anyway, thanks so much for taking the time to help out.
I need to make some time to pay back the favour - to this forum, and I
will, just ridiculously busy at the moment.

best regards,
Craig

Hi Craig,

I've not used FINAL TABLE extensively, but for the dozen or so times I
have, it has worked reliably and I've not seen any performance problems
with it.

Note: if your INSERT adds multiple rows, FINAL TABLE returns multiple
rows. In that case, if all you're interested in is the last identity
column value added, then you'll want to do:

select max( ID ) as MAX_ID from FINAL TABLE ( insert ... )

I've not done a lot of 3 part SQL across systems. When I have used it,
I've
not had any triggers involved, and have not had to mess with the library
list on the remote system. Hopefully someone else can sound off on how to
manipulate the library list on the remote system. I imagine people who do
need that likely use a specific user that has a default library list in a
default job description on the remote system.

While on this subject -

Another small issue I have...
On this insert I'm firing a trigger, which works swimmingly until the
trigger program tries to open some files ( from the same library )
They library is not in the library list of the job running on the RMT
system and so of course the trigger program file opens fail.

Do you know off-hand if there is a standard way to set the library list
as
part of the connection or as an initialisation process?

I don't really want to qualify the tables in the trigger program or mess
around with library lists every time the trigger is called.
Thanks as always,
Craig

Hi Craig,

This alternate method of getting an identity value just added on a
remote
system just worked in a test for me:

select ID from final table ( insert into RMT_SYS.RMT_SCHEMA.TEST_ID (
TEST_DATA ) values 'B');

--result
3

...substitute the name of your identity column in place of "ID".

HTH,

Mike

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your reply - I appreciate you taking the time to try to
help.
However, unless I misunderstand something, your SQL doesn't really
work
in
my situation.

In your example, when you insert the record with value A, the SRC
system
doing the insert has no way of knowing the ID.

If I get time I might try this using a JDBC connection, I'm hopeful
that
that might work.

Thanks again and best regards,
Craig

Hi Craig,

The likely difference between your test and my use, is mine
references
the
IDENTITY_VAL_LOCAL() function inside an SQL statement that is
ALSO a
3
part
SQL referencing the remote system. See example below.

Note: I've used this in ACS Run SQL Scripts, but I think it is
very
likely
to work elsewhere.

Example:

create table RMT_SYS.RMT_SCHEMA.TEST_ID
( ID bigint generated always as identity
,TEST_DATA char(1)
) ;

insert into RMT_SYS.RMT_SCHEMA.TEST_ID
( TEST_DATA ) values 'A';

insert into RMT_SYS.RMT_SCHEMA.TEST_ID
( TEST_DATA ) values trim( char( IDENTITY_VAL_LOCAL() ) );

select * from RMT_SYS.RMT_SCHEMA.TEST_ID;

--Result
ID TEST_DATA
1 A
2 1

IDENTITY_VAL_LOCAL() used in a non-3 part SQL will return the
last ID
assigned on the LOCAL system.

IDENTITY_VAL_LOCAL() used in a 3 part SQL will return the last ID
assigned
on the REMOTE system.

HTH,

Mike

Well,

It was easy enough to set this up and insert a record to a
remote
machine.
But when I call identity_val_local() after the insert it just
returns
null

To be clear, what I am doing is:
1. From Machine A, using 3-part SQL to insert a record into a
table
on
Machine B which has an always generated identity column.
2. From Machine A, trying to call identity_val_local() to find
the
latest
identity value assigned.

Identity_Val_Local() always returns null.
I tried this via the STRSQL command and also in an SQLRPGLE
program.

I understand that this value would need to be retrieved from the
job
running on the remote machine which actually does the work. I'd
hoped
it
might be smart enough to figure it out...
I'm lead to believe that it should work via a JDBC connection.

Mike - I thought you said this worked for you, but the scenario
you
described isn't the same as far as I can tell.

thanks and regards,
Craig
