Closed as program error.
Error description
Using a DB2 Type 2 JDBC driver with a Liberty transaction manager does indeed require the zosTransaction-1.0 feature, however it is possible for the end user to specify transactional="false" on the Data Source to indicate that the resource should not be enlisted into any transactions. In such a case, the zosTransaction-1.0 feature should not be required, but yet the restriction is still enforced.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server * * Liberty Profile who wish to not enlist a * * resource using the zosTransaction-1.0 * * feature. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The zosTransaction-1.0 feature * * requirement is still enforced despite * * transactional set to false on the Data * * Source. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When the zosTransaction-1.0 feature is not used and transactional="false" is specified on the Data Source, an SQLException is caught with a message "Native service for RRS transactional support is not active or available."
Problem conclusion
The transactional DataSource option is now correctly honored. When set to false, the resource no longer enters the enlistment process. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack following 8.5.0.2.
