Purpose
Specifies the database system identifier used for PP2 connection.
Usage Notes
The abbreviation for TDPID is TDP.
If used, the tdpid|network group name must obey the rules for specifying tdpid|network group name in a logon string.
Specification of this option does not affect, and is not related to, the connection established during application execution.
If SQLCHECK is specified with a value other than NOSYNTAX, a hardware platform for the database must be available to PP2.
