David,

We have seen this when the SQL server name was "null'ed".
To check this issue the following T-SQL command:
      select @@servername
If it comes back with no name or "null", try the following:

1. From the QA (Query Analyzer) issue the system procedure command:
         sp_addserver 'servername',local
   where 'servername' is the server name if accessing a SQL Server default
   instance, and is servername\instancename if accessing a named instance.

2. Stop and restart the SQL Server instance.

3. From the QA issue:
      select @@servername
   You should see the servername you used in sp_addserver.

4. Retry the TDP-SQL operation.

If it still fails, please call IBM support.

Thanks,

Del
