Before Version 7, DB2 Data Links Manager was only available on the Windows NT and AIX operating systems. DB2 Version 7.2 extends the availability of the DB2 Data Links Manager to the Solaris Operating Environment. You can now take advantage of the DB2 Data Links technology that provides referential integrity, access control, and recovery capabilities for files that physically reside on file systems that are external to DB2 Universal Database.
DB2 Data Links Manager for the Solaris Operating Environment runs in 32-bit mode. For more information on the DB2 Data Links Manager, see the DB2 Data Links Manager Quick Beginnings.
