Overview of QMF with remote unit of work

With the remote unit of work function, QMF can access relational data in a remote DB2 for OS/390, DB2 for VM, DB2 for VSE, DB2 Workstation or DB2 iSeries database server. Once connected to a location you can access the data and QMF objects at that location in much the same way you would access data and objects without a remote unit of work connection.

If you use the start-up program parameter DSQSDBNM or the QMF CONNECT command to specify a remote location to connect to, all subsequent QMF commands that access the database are directed to that location.

Figure 32. QMF Relationship to VM, DB2 for VM, and GDDM
QMF is connected to GDDM and to DB2 for VM. GDDM is  connected to Terminal,
and DB2 for VM is connected to Remote DB2 server by QMF DSQSDBNM parm, or
CONNECT command.
Note
Before you can connect to a location you must have QMF installed in the database at that location.
