Round DOUBLE when number too small instead of returning error SQL0405N

SAS calculations can return DOUBLE values smaller than Sailfish can store in a DOUBLE data type.

When a SAS dataset containing one of these values is written to Sailfish, the default datatype is DOUBLE and an error, SQL0405N, is returned.  Sailfish DECFLOAT can store these values, but SAS cannot currently read this datatype from Sailfish.

 

Suggest a setting controlled option to request that Sailfish round or truncate very small values so that Sailfish DOUBLE can store them without failing with an error.

    This would a useful registry variable that a client could set if they want this behaviour. As this was experienced with a client migrating from PDA/Netezza to a new IIAS/Db2 appliance. Appears the range for DOUBLE in Netezza is broader than it is for Db2. So this would help smooth the gap for compatibility when a client is migrating between these two IBM appliances/solutions.
