Thanks to everyone responded. The question was posted on behalf of our AS400 team so I don't know the specifics and will follow up as soon as I get them.
[Although RPG has been mentioned as one of the development languages] Thanks again! -Victor- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- >We may need to enable batch jobs running on AS400 to SYNCHRONOUSLY >access data residing on the mainframe [say, on DB2 or on a VSAM >file]. We might need a bit more information here. What is the runtime for these batch jobs? (There's more than one choice on IBM i.) Are these RPG programs? COBOL? Java, e.g. WebSphere Application Server batch programs on IBM i? Are these in house batch programs that you wrote, with source code that you maintain? Or vendor-supplied programs that access data a certain way (e.g. DB2 for IBM i)? Or some of each? If you could elaborate just a bit on what "batch jobs" means here, that'd be great. The answer(s) depend in part of what sort of batch jobs are involved. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy Sipples VCT Architect Executive (Based in Singapore) E-Mail: sipp...@sg.ibm.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
