We are trying to access a cobol stored procedure on zOS using
DB2 Connect V8.1 fp7b RTC via an AIX server, we are able
to connect to the database on zOS, however when try to access
the stored procedure we get the following error:

IBM][CLI Driver] SQL0998N. Error occurred during transaction or
heuristic processing. Reason code = ?16?. Subcode = ?2-80004005?.
SQLstate = 58005

Any ideas?

Look out for more information in Stored Proc Address space, Distributed address space and master address space on zoS . Also check the client's db2diag.log file ..

If these do not help, try a db2 cli trace also ..

Even before that, are you able to successfully call the procedure on zOS itself ?

Cheers

Nothing showed up in Stored Proc Address space, Distributed address space and master address space on zoS. Also nothing showed up in the db2diag.log.

I will try a DB2 CLI trace.

Yes this is a production Stored procedure that has been working fine and
can be called from z/OS.

Thanks
