This problem was first corrected in SNA Server 4.0 Service Pack 4.
To reproduce this problem, configure a Linked Server to DB2 from SQL Server by using DB2OLEDB, and then run the following script from Query Analyzer:
DECLARE @CTR INT
SELECT @CTR = 10
WHILE (SELECT @CTR) < 100
BEGIN
INSERT INTO LinkedServerName.CatalogName.SchemaName.TableName (COL1) VALUES (@CTR)
PRINT @CTR
SELECT @CTR = @CTR + 1
END
