I am trying to export db2 data using db2 control center. However, i got the following warning message during the data export.

SQL3104N The Export utility is beginning to export data to file
"e:\www\xfile\syn2607.csv".

SQL3100W Column number "2" (identified as "SYNOPSIS") in the output DEL
format file is longer than 254 bytes.

SQL3105N The Export utility has finished exporting "4931" rows.

May i know is it ok with my column datas?

I believe the message you got is just a warning that one of your columns is defined as being longer than 254 characters. Some import/export utilities have problems with very long fields and some older databases would only support VARCHAR fields up to ~255 characters.

I'm guessing that it will be up to you to manually verify that your data is exporting/importing properly. If possible create a record that has the maximum number of characters the field will hold. Does this record export properly without truncation? Does it import to the target database okay? If it does, then all the shorter records should be fine.
