From SQL PL Guide for DB2

Create Procedure (DB2 Stored Procedure structure)

A stored procedure in DB2 has the following structure:

 CREATE PROCEDURE [OR REPLACE] <procname> [ ( {optional parameters} ) ]
 [{optional procedure attributes}]
 BEGIN [atomic]
   ... statements ...
 END

The following optional procedure attributes are supported:

• SPECIFIC <unique_name>
• DYNAMIC RESULT SETS <number>
• CONTAINS SQL or READS SQL DATA or MODIFIES SQL DATA
• [NOT] DETERMINISTIC
• CALLED ON NULL INPUT
• LANGUAGE SQL

A procedure can be defined as ATOMIC or NON-ATOMIC procedure.

The OR REPLACE option is available with DB2 9.7.

The declaration of variables, the statements, and procedure logic is placed in the procedure body.

Example:

...coming soon...
