Chapter 2 Connectivity
This chapter provides instructions and information for setting up and testing connectivity to the following database systems:
ODBC DB2® UDB for IBM® i Connectivity
ODBC DB2® UDB for IBM® i connectivity is facilitated through the DB2 client. This gives the server the advantage of straight connectivity, speed, and data type access without the ODBC layer. However, if you install products such as IBM's client access for IBM i, then the connectivity is through the ODBC link. Verify the requirements of the individual packages.
