Installing the z/OS Application Connectivity to DB2 for z/OS feature
z/OS Application Connectivity to DB2 for z/OS is a DB2 for z/OS feature that
allows IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ type 4 connectivity from clients
that do not have DB2 for z/OS installed to DB2 for z/OS or DB2 Database for
Linux, UNIX, and Windows servers.
Prerequisites for the IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ:
v Java 2 Technology Edition, V1.4.2 service release 2 (SR2), or later
The following functions require Java 2 Technology Edition, V5 or later.
– Accessing DB2 tables that include DECFLOAT columns
– Using Java support for XML schema registration and removal
The IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ supports 31-bit or 64-bit Java
applications. If your applications require a 64-bit JVM, you need to install the
IBM 64-bit SDK for z/OS, Java 2 Technology Edition, V5 or later.
v TCP/IP
TCP/IP is required on the client and all database servers to which you connect.
v DB2 for z/OS distributed data facility (DDF) and TCP/IP support.
v Unicode support for OS/390 and z/OS servers.
If any Java programs will use IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ type 4
connectivity to connect to a DB2 for z/OS Version 7 server, the OS/390 or z/OS
operating system must support the Unicode UTF-8 encoding scheme. This
support requires OS/390 Version 2 Release 9 with APAR OW44581, or a later
release of OS/390 or z/OS, plus the OS/390 V2 R8/R9/R10 support for
Unicode. Information APARs II13048 and II13049 contain additional information.
v SYSIBM.SYSDUMMYA, SYSIBM.SYSDUMMYE, and SYSIBM.SYSDUMMYU
catalog tables
If you plan to use LOB locators to retrieve CLOB or DBCLOB data from DB2 for
z/OS servers, these tables must exist on all of those database servers.
To install the z/OS Application Connectivity to DB2 for z/OS, follow this process.
Unless otherwise noted, all steps apply to the z/OS system on which you are
installing z/OS Application Connectivity to DB2 for z/OS.
