Description
57079-6 This book contains information essential for establishing Distributed Relational Database Architecture (DRDA) connectivity across IBM relational database products running on different platforms and remote networks. The authors take you step by step as they establish connectivity among DB2 for OS/2, DB2 for AIX, DB2 for OS/400, SQL/DS for VM and VSE, and DB2 for MVS/ESA and run applications accessing all platforms. The connections are based on their tests and experience gained from actual installations. Other platforms covered include Windows and DOS. Database administrators, system administrators, and other technical professionals responsible for setting up DRDA connectivity among IBM relational database products will find this book invaluable. Many of the examples are valid in a client/server environment where APPC is used. Together with Teresa Hopper's Distributed Relational Database Architecture: Connectivity Guide, this book provides a complete set of guidelines for establishing DRDA communications across networks.
A background in Systems Network Architecture (SNA) communications is assumed, as well as a basic knowledge of the IBM relational database products and their associated operating systems. Sharing Technical Expertise from around the World. This book and other IBM Redbooks are products of IBM's International Technical Support Organization, where worldwide specialists work alongside you to harness IBM technologies. IBM Redbooks make the answers to your most pressing technical questions easily and immediately accessible. "A must read. Fantastic detail is provided on connecting to DB2 products from all major environments, including UNIX, Windows, and MVS. Required reading!" Tim Woolford-Smith, Principal Consultant, ADC Consultants "The quintessential guide to bringing the benefits of DB2 connectivity and data distribution to your organization. Do not attempt to design or implement a comprehensive DB2 architecture without it!" Don Tonkin, IBM Endorsed Gold Consultant
