You will get this error , if the table(s) is locked by some other process. You may need to restart your job. If you are getting that error conistently, use the following db2 command to know more details.

-DISPLAY DB(database name) SPACE(table space name) LIMIT(*)

Use below command to start database again.

-START DB(Tdatabase name) SPACENAM(table space name) ACCESS(FORCE)

I advise you to contact your DBA, before doing all these.

Hi,
What reason can it be there?
You've already give the explanation. The SQL statement could not be executed because resource resource-name of type resource-type was not available at the time for the reason indicated by reason-code. Suggest you get in cotact with you DBA/support. Any solution from Forum would not help you much . . .

Anuj

The OP posted this same question in another forum, and eventually provided the reason code:
Unavailable Resource Reason 00d70024, TYPE=220 ....

And in the other forum, the appropriate answer:

means DB2 Table Migrated.

suggest that this thread be locked.

In the future, anyone posting a -904 problem without the reason code
should be ignored until the reason code is provided,
so that we can do the research,
since the OP can not do his own.

JCL, SQL and code in programs have an irritating habit of doing what you say,
not what you meant.
