Catalog Schema Attribute CatalogSchema (CS) Purpose Specifies the DB2 schema to use for Catalog functions. Specifying a schema allows you to use copies or views of the system catalog tables for catalog functions. Valid Values schema_name where: schema_name is the name of a valid DB2 schema. If you do not specify a value for this attribute, the driver uses SYSIBM when connected to DB2 for z/OS, QSYS2 when connected to DB for ii, and SYSCAT when connected to Linux/UNIX/Windows. Example Create a view DB2ADMIN.TABLES from SYSCAT.TABLES. CREATE VIEW DB2ADMIN.TABLES AS SELECT * FROM SYSCAT.TABLES WHERE OWNER LIKE 'ODBC%' Set CatalogSchema=DB2ADMIN, and do the SQLTables thing. "TABLE_CAT", "TABLE_SCHEM", "TABLE_NAME", "TABLE_TYPE", "REMARKS" The results come from the DB2ADMIN.TABLES view. Three rows are fetched from five columns. <Null>, "DB2ADMIN", "BUG", "TABLE", <Null><Null>, "DB2ADMIN", "DATETEST", "TABLE", <Null><Null>, "DB2ADMIN", "TESTCP", "TABLE", <Null> Default None GUI Tab Advanced tab
