(default schema). </p>
<p><strong>Library list</strong> The server uses specified libraries
to resolve unqualified stored procedure names, and stored procedures use
them to resolve unqualified names. To specify multiple libraries, use commas
or spaces to separate individual entries. You can use *LIBL as a placeholder
for the current library list of the server job: </p>
<ul><li>When the first entry is *LIBL, the specified libraries are added to the
current library list of the server job </li>
<li>When you do not use *LIBL, the specified libraries replace the current
library list of the server job </li>
</ul>
<p>For more information about library list properties, see <a href="jdbcliblistproperty.htm#jdbcliblistproperty">JDBC LibraryList property</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Default
schema</strong> The server uses the default schema to resolve unqualified names
in SQL statements. For example, in the statement "SELECT * FROM MYTABLE",
the server looks only in the default schema for MYTABLE. You can specify
the default schema on the connection URL. When you do not specify the default
schema on the connection URL, the following conditions apply, depending
on whether you use SQL Naming or System Naming. </p>
<ul><li><strong>SQL Naming</strong> When you do not specify the default schema on the connection
URL: <ul><li>The first entry (unless it is *LIBL) becomes the default schema</li>
<li>When the first entry is *LIBL, the second entry becomes the default schema</li>
<li>When you do not set this property or when it contains only *LIBL, the
user profile becomes the default schema</li>
</ul>

<li><strong>System Naming</strong> When you do not specify the default schema on the
connection URL: <ul><li>No default schema is set, and the server uses the specified libraries
to search for unqualified names</li>
<li>When you do not set this property or when it contains only *LIBL, the
