Having reviewed DB2 Documentation nothing came up on CLOB() or CLOB
FUNCTION.
You obviously did not read the documentation. Since you seem to have
trouble, here's the reference for the CLOB() function:
-CLOB--(--character-string-expression--+------------+--)-----><
'-,--integer-'
The schema is SYSIBM.
The CLOB function returns a CLOB representation of a character string
type. In a Unicode database, if a supplied argument is a graphic string,
it is first converted to a character string before the function is executed.
character-string-expression
An expression that returns a value that is a character string.
integer
An integer value specifying the length attribute of the resulting
CLOB data type. The value must be between 0 and 2 147 483 647. If
integer is not specified, the length of the result is the same as the
length of the first argument.
The result of the function is a CLOB. If the argument can be null, the
result can be null; if the argument is null, the result is the null value.
