ERROR [08001] [IBM] SQL1336N The remote host was not found. SQLSTATE=08001 |
You are attempting to connect to a database version that is not supported in Toad. Solution: Review the list of supported databases in the Release Notes or Installation Guide. |
ERROR [58031] [IBM] SQL1031N The database directory cannot be found on the indicated file system. SQLSTATE=58031 |
You do not have any catalog entries defined for the connection. Solution: See Configure DB2 Client Connections for more information to determine the best method for cataloging a database. |
ERROR [42501] [IBM][DB2] SQL0551N "UserName" does not have the privilege to perform operation "SELECT" on object "SYSIBM.SYSSTMT". SQLSTATE=42501 |
You do not have SYSADM privileges for the DB2 for z/OS subsystem. Solution: Ensure that you are granted SELECT permissions on the DB2 catalog tables. |
ERROR [] [IBM] SQL1460N The environment variable "SOCKS_NS" required for SOCKS server name resolution is not defined or not valid. |
When using the Time-Sharing Option (TSO) to connect, the user ID, port number, or IP address entered may be incorrect. Solution: Ensure that you use the following for TSO connections:
|
ERROR [56038] [IBM][DB2] SQL0969N There is no message text corresponding to SQL error "-4700" in the message file on this workstation.' when connecting to compatibility mode database. -or- After connecting, some objects do not display properly or some functionality does not work as designed. |
In general, Toad does not support a z/OS subsystem running in Compatibility mode. Solution: If possible, switch the subsystem's operating mode to Full Function mode. If this is not possible, Toad now provides a message when you connect to subsystem, informing you of that the subsystem is running in compatibility mode and that some features might not be available. |

Poor performance when browsing DB2 for z/OS objects in Toad. Indexes are populated slowly. |
User-defined indexes on specific system catalog tables can improve performance when you are browsing DB2 for z/OS objects in Toad. The following link contains the DDL for indexes that can optimize Toad performance on your DB2 for z/OS subsystem. Keep in mind that the creation of these indexes is a recommendation only. The indexes can have different results in different environments, depending on the number of DB2 objects and the amount of data involved. To create these indexes, edit and run the DDL contained in the following file: Additionally, if the schema drop-down lists in the Object Migration wizard populate slowly, consider creating an index on the SCHEMA and CREATOR columns in the catalog table for each object type. Here is a list of some of the object-type tables:

Encountering the S378 Abend when running IBM DB2 z/10 subsystem in Conversion mode with older versions of Toad. |
This issue appears because the Toad z/OS Component tries to reference the QUEST.QC200ZPARM function. Solution: DROP the QUEST.QC200ZPARM function from your DB2 z/OS 10 subsystem. This will eliminate the possibility of the function being called into the WLM environment procedure and causing the S378 abend. We do not recommend that you to just STOP the QUEST.QC200ZPARM function on the mainframe side, without actually dropping it, because that may case Toad or the batch process (QCEXEC – remote job execution) to hang. Dropping the QUEST.QC200ZPARM function is recommended. |
Toad integrates with your existing version control system so you can maintain multiple revisions of objects and SQL scripts . See Configure Version Control for Objects for more information on configuring version control in Toad.
For Version Control of your files handled by Toad see Version Control for Toad Files.
Important: See Troubleshoot Version Control for more information about issues when upgrading version control from a previous version.
Notes:
You must install a supported version control client on the computer where Toad is installed. The following table lists the supported version control providers and the versions tested with Toad.
Supported Provider | Server Version Tested | Client Version Tested |
---|---|---|
Apache Subversion™
|
Subversion 1.7.5 on Windows |
CollabNet Subversion Command-Line Client 1.7.5 Note: Any Subversion client must have svn.exe in its installation directory to use version control in Toad. |
Git | Toad works only with the local repository. For commands such as clone, pull and push use an external tool. | |
Team Foundation Server (TFS) |
TFS 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013 |
Visual Studio® (2008, 2010, 2012, 2013) Team Explorer Client
|
File system based | Toad allows to utilize practically any version control system using the external client tool. In this case Toad Version Control tool works with the directories at local HDD while you commit changes to the repository with version control client tool. | |
Note: Toad connects to your version control system based on login information included in the configuration. Your version control client does not need to run for Toad to connect. |
The following objects can be added to Version Control:
ALIAS DISTINCT TYPE INDEX MQ TABLE SCHEMA SEQUENCE TABLE TRIGGER USER VIEW FUNCTION PROCEDURE SCRIPT |
Details of Team Foundation Server support:
Visual Studio/Team Explorer version | TFS 2013 support notes | TFS 2012 support notes | TFS 2010 support notes |
---|---|---|---|
Visual Studio 2015 | Supported (RTM or latest update) | Supported (RTM or latest update) | Supported (RTM or latest update) |
Visual Studio/Team Explorer 2013 | Supported (RTM or latest update) | Supported (RTM or latest update) | Supported (RTM or latest update) |
Visual Studio/Team Explorer 2012 | Requires latest Visual Studio 2012 update. Supports Git with Visual Studio Tools for Git extension | Supported (RTM or latest update). Supports Git with Visual Studio Tools for Git extension | Supported (RTM or latest update). Supports Git with Visual Studio Tools for Git extension |
Note: Additional functionality and compatibility with older clients is possible but out of scope of what we are able to test.
Toad can integrate with your existing version control system allowing you to maintain multiple versions of Toad files. After you integrate Toad with your version control system, you can perform version control tasks directly from within Toad, such as commit file changes and retrieve revisions.
Toad supports the following version control systems for managing Toad files:
The following types of files can be managed using version control from within Toad: Editor (.tef, .sql, .txt), Query Builder (.tsm), ER Diagram (.ter), and Automation (.tas).
Toad supports version control for database objects, as well as files. Version control for objects is configured separately from version control for files. For more information about version control for objects, see Configure Version Control for Objects.
To configure version control for Toad files
In Toad, open one of the supported file types. Then right-click the document window tab and select File Version Control | Version Control Wizard. This action opens the Version Control Wizard which allows you to configure Toad for your version control system.
Note: Even if you previously configured version control for objects, you must run the Version Control Wizard again to configure version control for files.
Use the wizard to provide information about your version control system to Toad. Review the following for additional information:
