Attaching to an additional Db2 subsystem on a different MVS system
From a
SQL Explorer
session, you can attach to a Db2 subsystem on another MVS system if you have the Db2 DDF.
Before you begin
Ensure that the following requirements are met:
- Remote locations are defined in the SYSIBM.LOCATIONS table of the local Db2 subsystem and are connected using the Db2 DDF.
- SQL Explorer is installed on the local SSID, and the object is bound with SQL Explorer on the remote Db2 subsystems.
- SQL Explorer is installed on the remote Db2 subsystems.
- The same version of SQL Explorer is on all Db2 subsystems.
- The collection IDs are the same for all SQL Explorer installations (in order to use DDF to connect).
To attach to an additional subsystem on a different MVS system
In the DDF Location field on the SQL Explorer main menu, type the location of the DDF.
