SYMPTOMS
When you use the Ole DB Provider for DB2 (DB2OLEDB) from a multi-threaded .NET application, the provider may return an internal network library (NetLib) error. In the .NET application, this error is returned in a System.Exception object. This problem only occurs when the query string is of significant length and the DB2OLEDB provider connection type is SNA LU6.2 Advanced Program-to-Program Communication (APPC).
CAUSE
The DB2OLEDB provider does not correctly initialize some fields in an internal data structure. This internal data structure is used to build the APPC verb control block (VCB). When you use the provider from a multi-threaded .NET application, a timing issue may occur. This timing issue can cause parts of the APPC VCB to be overwritten with the query string. This causes the APPC function call to fail, and in turn causes the DB2OLEDB provider to return the NetLib error.
