Db2 Z/OS Version 11.01 and 12.
I am verifying that the structure of some tables is equal on more customers/environments. I noticed that the default value is the only aspect that differs between many tables
For Example - Table "Order" Columns "PRICE"
Environment 1 -> DECIMAL(18,3) NOT NULL WITH DEFAULT Environment 2 -> DECIMAL(18,3) NOT NULL WITH DEFAULT 0 Environment 3 -> DECIMAL(18,3) NOT NULL WITH DEFAULT 0.0
I am not sure if i have to consider theese "definitions" as technically and functionally equivalent or not.
Thanks
Yes, for a decimal(18,3) column, all three are functionally equivalent.
The default ends up being 000000000000000.000
000000000000000.000
