Explanation

In DB2 database systems, when date or timestamp columns have null values, their low-value (minimum) default representations are '0001-01-01' for dates and '0001-01-01-00.00.00.000000' for timestamps. All-zero values are invalid in DB2, and other choices specify incorrect time components.
