PowerExchange 9.6.0 provides connection sharing for DB2 lookups. By default, all DB2 lookups in a workflow use the same connection, and the PowerExchange Listener performs them in a single task.
In PowerExchange releases earlier than 9.6.0, each DB2 lookup uses a separate connection. If you need to preserve this behavior in PowerExchange 9.6.0 or later, specify CONNSHARE=N in the PowerCenter PWX Override connection attribute.
If the DB2 connection is used as a target in a CDC workflow, do not change the default behavior. Otherwise, internal PowerCenter state tables that require connection sharing might not be updated correctly.
DB2 lookups that share a connection do not use offload processing, partitioning, or threading.
