DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

With V9.7 client, when importing data to a table with TIMESTAMP 
column(s) in V9.5 or earlier database, if the timestampformat 
file type modifier is specified for ASC/DEL file, IMPORT might 
hit SQL0304N error when attempting to import rows containing 
TIMESTAMP data, and then reject the rows. 
 
You can see the following messages when the issue occurs: 
 
SQL3148W  A row from the input file was not inserted into the 
table.  SQLCODE "-304" was returned. 
 
SQL0304N  A value cannot be assigned to a host variable because 
the value is not within the range of the host variable's data 
type.  SQLSTATE=22003

Try to remove the timestampformat file type modifier from the 
IMPORT command and import again when TIMESTAMP data is well 
formatted in the ASC/DEL file.
