Using DB2 Connect In an iSeries Linux Partition - Optimize the DB2 Connect Access to a DB2 UDB for iSeries from a Linux Partition

Tags:
linux server os

Overview Linux, an open-source implementation of UNIX, is rapidly gaining acceptance among IBM eServer iSeries users. With the V5R2 enhancements, Linux for 64-bit PowerPC can run natively in up to 31 separate logical partitions. Currently, IBM offers DB2 UDB Version 8.1 for Linux on iSeries. There are several DB2 products that are supported on PowerPC Linux - one of these products is DB2 Connect. This paper will explore the most important aspects of DB2 Connect – iSeries integration. We will provide configuration tips and coding examples that illustrate how to access DB2 UDB for iSeries from a Linux partition using the DB2 Connect gateway.
