Interesting. It appears that the control center is what is messing
up. When I start and stop monitor, the garbage characters come and
go. That's good news.
I changed some settings in webSphere and it seems to help. I
decreased the amount of time an orphaned connection will be held, as
well as reducing the max connections. DB2 seems to be much happier
now. Nothing at all of interest in db2diag.log, wish there was.
OK, the moral of the story is need to stay current on this or any
software to get good support. Thanks for the insight.

just trying to get by. It's all junk, just give me COBOL and VSAM
files and I'll be happy. Well at least it's not microsoft I guess.
If the database resides on z/OS - you would neet DB2 Connect only. I have no
clue about product pricing but DB2 Connect Personal Edition would not be that
expensive, right?
Anyway db2level output and any interesting entries in db2diag.log could be
agood opening point in any social conversation (Remember that this product is
not supported :-). Also - what make you think it is not Websphere hickup?
