The remote procedure call (RPC) feature allows a stored procedure to initiate an event in a remote database—that is, to make a remote procedure call. Basically, any CT-Library application can generate RPC events. A client application can invoke an RPC to:
Invoke an external stored procedure
Execute a language statement as an RPC
Execute a transfer request
When ASE issues an RPC event to the DB2 access service,
it tries to establish a connection using the same service name as
the identifier for the ASE in the sql.ini file
(Windows) or the interfaces file (UNIX).
