TME 10 SystemView LAN Client provided by the OS/2 Warp Server.
- The DB2 SNMP subagent requires DPI 2.0 support provided by the
OS/2 Warp Server installed. If you plan to use DB2 SNMP subagent
for system management, you will have to use OS/2 Warp Server.
| APPC, IPX/SPX, NetBIOS, or TCP/IP
- For local IPX/SPX connectivity, you require Novell NetWare Requester,
Version 2.10 or later.
- Named Pipes is supported locally in WIN-OS/2 sessions on OS/2 Warp
Server.
- For local NetBIOS connectivity, you require IBM NTS/2 Version 1.0,
or IBM Communications Manager Version 1.x or later, or IBM OS/2
LAN Requester.
- For TCP/IP connectivity, you require IBM TCP/IP Version
3.0 or later for OS/2 Warp Versions 3 and 4, and for OS/2
Warp Connect Version 3. The OS/2 Warp Server Version 4 base
operating system provides TCP/IP connectivity, if selected during
installation.
- For SNA (APPC) connectivity, one of the following communications products
is required:
- IBM eNetwork Communications Server for OS/2 Warp Version 5
- IBM eNetwork Personal Communications for OS/2 Warp Version 4.2
- IBM Communication Server for OS/2 Version 4
Notes:
- If you plan to use DCE (Distributed Computing Environment) Security for
authenticating users that connect to host databases, you do not have to
install DCE products on your DB2 Connect workstation. However, you will
have to:
- Ensure that you are connecting to DB2 for OS/390 V5.1 database that
is enabled for DCE support using OS/390 DCE Base Services Version 3 if you
wish to use DB2 Connect. You must install DCE Directory Services on
both the client and the DRDA Server, but you do not need DCE installed on the
DB2 Connect Enterprise Edition server.
- Ensure that client workstations, using DCE security, have a DCE product
that is at OSF DCE Level 1.1 with the IBM Directory and Security Server
for OS/2 Warp Version 4.
- If you plan to use two-phase commit with DB2 Connect and DRDA host
systems, you must install the Syncpoint Manager (SPM) function and its
prerequisites.
- The DB2 SNMP Subagent requires DPI 2.0 support provided by the
OS/2 Warp Server.
- Installing clients and servers using TME 10 Netfinity requires TME 10
Netfinity LAN Client provided by the OS/2 Warp Server.

For SNA (APPC) connectivity, one of the following communication products is
required:
- IBM Communications Server for Windows NT Version 5.01 or later
- IBM Personal Communications for Windows NT Version 4.1 or later
- Microsoft SNA Server Version 4 Service Pack 2 or later
Notes:
- If SNA two-phase commit is necessary, then IBM Communications Server for
Windows NT Version 5.01 or later is required.
- If you plan to use DCE (Distributed Computing Environment) with Version 6
of DB2 Universal Database, you will need:
- A DCE product that is at OSF DCE level 1.1 with IBM DCE for Windows
NT Version 2.0.
- To ensure that if you are connecting to DB2 for OS/390 V5.1
database that it is enabled for DCE support using OS/390 DCE Base Services
Version 3.
In addition, DB2 also supports Gradient PC-DCE for Windows 32-bit
operating systems Version 2.0 Runtime Media Kit. For DB2 Connect
support, you require DB2/MVS Version 5.1 plus its prerequisite, OS/390
DCE Base Services version 3 for DCE support.
