Chris Teoh commented on SQOOP-3191:
-----------------------------------

Thanks for finding this [~eliviu]

I have only used the mainframe module to export datasets as plain text as it is not querying the DB2 database directly. It is most likely a documentation bug but I'd like to know what your use case is to see if it is.

Kind Regards
Chris
