My customer had this backwards.. My apologies.. They want to go from a
Federated environment in AIX to a DB2 server on VM.

I'm not sure if Federated Support is available in DB2 for VSE & VM, but
minimally the DB2 for VM 7.5 client code would need to be installed on
VM, which is basically everything except the database engine. I would
suggest starting with the General Information manual. Or maybe the
product announcement. Since you are in product support, I'm sure there
are people in Toronto that you can ask.
