Why and when to perform this task
This topic describes how to create a DB2 for z/OS database for the scheduler and how to verify that it is reachable from the application server machine.Steps for this task
catalog tcpip node zosnode remote hostname server IP_port ostype mvs; catalog database subsystem as subsystem at node zosnode authentication dcs; catalog dcs database subsystem as subsystem parms ',,INTERRUPT_ENABLED'An important difference exists between DB2 UDB and DB2 for z/OS. DB2 UDB does not have the concept of a subsystem, but DB2 for z/OS does have subsystems. To avoid confusion between Database name and Subsystem name, it is important to understand that because DB2 for z/OS runs in a subsystem, the catalog node and catalog database commands must identify the appropriate subsystem. On DB2 UDB, the subsystem name is not a known concept, and the database name to which it connects is actually the name of the DB2 for z/OS subsystem.
Results
The DB2 for z/OS database for the scheduler service is created.
