Using mainframe data access
To prepare to use mainframe data access:
- Install the DB2 II Classic Federation for z/OS, V 8.1 client
software.
- Include the DB2 JDBC Driver (cacjdbc21.jar) in the JDBCDRIVERPATH in the JDBC connector startup script (see Starting the connector).
Note:
You must use the JDBC driver that is shipped with
the client software.
To connect to the DB2 II Classic Federation Server:
- Go to the following URL to log in to the VLAN: jdbc:cac:DATASOURCENAME:tcp/host name or IP address/port number
For example:
jdbc:cac:CACWBI:tcp/9.30.136.99/8094
- When prompted, type in your userid and password for the VLAN.
When login is complete, a pop-up window will indicate authentication
is successful. Close this window but do not click on any buttons. The
connection times out after a fixed time period. If you receive an
error message, you need to log in to the VLAN again.
