Cause

This problem occurs because the updates that you applied include changes to the Access RDB (ACCRDB) Distributed Data Management (DDM) command that enable the correlation token (CRRTKN) to be more than 12 characters long. IBM DB2 for z/OS Versions 8 and earlier versions do not support CRRTKN values that are longer than 12 characters.
