Configuring IMS to communicate with DB2

Use the following procedures to enable IMS to communicate with remote DB2 subsystems via Subzero.

There are two implementation procedures that can be used to enable IMS connections to remote DB2 subsystems.

Warning

Note

You can use a combination of implementation procedures. You can force some DB2 connection definitions to use Subzero, and allow the others to be dynamically altered for remote or local connectivity at connection time.

Both of these implementation procedures require that you have:

  • Configured and started the Subzero environment on the local and remote LPARs
  • Configured remote connectivity using the BMC Configuration Component for z/OS (LGC) component
Warning

Note

To also use Subzero as an interface between IBM IMS and IBM DB2, you must have a license for the BMC Subsystem Optimizer for DB2 product.
