The zIIPs don't particularly affect JDBC or ODBC access to DB2 stored procedures with DB2 V8 for z/OS, as far as I know. DB2 9 for z/OS does enjoy zIIP benefits in such a scenario, however. But if the DB2 stored procedures are written in Java (1.4.1 or higher at a sufficient build level), they can exploit zAAPs. With DB2 9 you can actually drive both types of engines with Java stored procedures remotely accessed (cross-LPAR or over the network) via DRDA (JDBC, ODBC).
