Hi,
When i do a "db2 list applications", i get the required applications
with their ip addresses.
However, some of the application Ids are ip addresses while some
application Ids are arbitrary(like GA500A2B.K105.014AC7050331) and of
the form "GA500%'.
Can somebody explain what are these indifferent application ids?
The DRDA protocol does not allow application IDs to start with a digit
(0-9). Therefore, all digits in the first character are mapped to the
letters G thru P.
It is the problem only with some application ids, rest all application
ids showed correct ip addresses.
If the first digit (first 4 bits) is 0 thru 9, it is mapped to G thru P. If
the first 4 bits already represent a letter A thru F, then no such mapping
is necessary. Therefore, some IP addresses are already correct while some
have to be mapped back - depending on the first letter.
