mainframe db2

Thanks for reading


If DB/2 connectivity is set up. What stage would we use in DataStage? Could we use the udb/db2 stage, but set up for remote conection to the mainframe the same way would set up for remote connections between servers that have DataStage installed?

If both lookups fail, I already have what I need and no further processing is necessary. If one or both of the lookups were successful then I need to do some additional processin...
