Incorrect "union all" results

2 New Member
Hello All,

create table a (i int);
create table b(i int);
insert into a values(1);
insert into b values(2);
select * from a union all select * from b;

My understanding is the result should be showing at screen as a result
of such 1, 2 ... order but our resulted is showing as 2 1 .on screen.
I tested it on db2, informix, soliddb, mssql, oracle. but db2 only
differ from others. Please let me know why?

the order can be any order, if not specified
do explain and see, which table is accessed first
