Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• The field QWACZIIP_ELIGIBLE is reintroduced in IFCID3 in DB2
  10 as a serviceability field. The field captures the
  IBM specialty engine eligible time that is run on a
  general purpose CP for a subset of IBM specialty engine
  eligible processing. More specifically, the time will
  reflect the eligible time for:
   1. distributed DBATs
   2. parallel query parent threads and
   3. zIIP eligible utilities
  All other cases of IBM specialty engine offload are NOT
  reflected in this serviceability field.
