I have a Question about DB2 versions for z/Series 64-bit SLES 8, from this document 
here it states no 64-bit.
<http://www-306.ibm.com/software/data/db2/linux/validate/sles8.html>
If you look elsewhere at other sources it states that there is a version for 64-bit 
z/Series Linux.
Here are the offerings:
Linux(TM) (S/390(R) and zSeries(R) 64-bit) Product list: 
* DB2 Connect Application Server Edition, Version 8 
* DB2 Connect Enterprise Edition, Version 8 
* DB2 Connect Unlimited Edition, Version 8 
Does anyone know for sure if there is a 64-bit version of DB2 Connect that i can use 
on my 64-bit SLES 8 for z/Series?
TIA,
Cameron Seader

Well, if all you want is your PHP apps talking to DB2 then you may not need to use the 
db2 calls from PHP. You may be able to use a generic PHP SQL library to get a db2 
client installed on the same to connect to the DB2 server (maybe using ODBC calls). 
Take a look at PEAR:DB (at http://pear.php.net/) which abstracts the DB interface 
nicely, keeping your code valid no matter what brand the database is.
