We had timeout problems connecting to db2 whenever we were running heavy load jobs on the mainframe because of the way the mainframe was configured to give priority to CICS jobs. When our mainframe was originally configured, there was never any thought about using the distributed components (ie, connecting via ODBC/JDBC).
My apps are the only ones in the university that actually connected through that method, and after about 3 years of complaining, our primary mainframe guy finally fiddled around with the configuration to fix it. So there's ONE reason you could get database connection timed out.
