Hi All,
I have two queries
in order to access a z/OS DB2 table from DB2 UDB on a UNIX server using nicknames; do I require any other software besides
1. DB2 Connect
2. DB2 UDB which is installed on UNIX server
3. DB2 z/OS which is installed on mainframe

this allows me to access my remote mainframe tables like
select r_a,r_b from mf_schema.A,unix_schema.B
where r_a > 100 and r_b < 1000
with ur;
Would I mandatorily require tools like DB2 Relational Connect for achieving this.

Also, my next query is how is the DB connection to z/OS & unix maintained in tha query like this. User id and password entered during user mapping is used only once and the connection to z/OS is maintained until specifically disconnected.
or its connected and disconnected every time I access mainframe DB2 via the nickname created on UNIX.
Thanks in advance
Nimesh

what about searching the IBM redbooks,
they usually give very good insight on the general architecture of things
