with Service Packs for the DB.
Why dont you use IBM DB2 JDBC Type IV Drivers for OS/390 Rather than DB2 Connect.
Last time i checked DB2 Connect was a PAIN, Not Easy to SetUp and relied heavily with DB2 Service Pack Levels.

Subject: Merant or IBM JDBC Type4 drivers for DB2 OS/390?
Does anyone have experience with CFMX 6.1 (particularly J2EE, on Win2K Adv
Server) using the JDBC Type4 drivers for DB2 supplied by Macromedia (Merant
- DataDirect?) and/or the ones supplied by IBM to access DB2 on OS/390?
We have the Merant/DataDirect drivers working but we haven't tried the IBM
drivers yet (so we have no basis for a performance comparison). With the
Merant/DataDirect drivers we will have full control over creating,
configuring, deleting data sources, but we will also be responsible for
fixing problems and getting support from MM/Merant/DataDirect/IBM. With the
IBM drivers our DB2 Connect team will assume complete control over creating,
configuring, deleting data sources (we'll lose some flexibility and control)
and will also assume responsibility for fixing problems and dealing with IBM
for support.
Thoughts or comments?
