Hi all!
One of the many weaknesses of DB2, which I am being forced to move to kicking and screaming, is the lack of functionality to easily generate a checksum() value of some sort.
SQL Server 2000 has checksum() and binary_checksum(), my personal favorite that spoiled me rotten for it's speed, but DB2 has it available only for internal testing. It is not exposed for clients to use as far as I know.
I have already submitted the capability request to IBM, but is it possible to have that type of functionality in DataStage?
Bestest!
Could anyone else use a checksum() type ability for DB2?

Hi Meena,
Thanks for your input. I will definitely take a gander at it and see if I can apply it for what I need.

Where would I find it in the Server Edition?
Hi Craig,
I've been digging around for it in the documentation. I must be missing it somehow. Do you know where in the Server Edition documentation I would find info on it?
Thanks!
