OS/390 Connection
Posted: Mon Mar 31, 2003 11:16 pm
Hi ppl,
I have a doubt regarding Datastage 390.Is my logic correct.
We have got ODBC drivers(be it windows or unix flavours) for DB2 on OS/390 through which i can connect to mainframes.Does this essentially means i can do away with 390 component ..i.e i can use ODBC stage in server jobs itself for retreiving data from the mainframes.
If the above is true then when does DS390 come into the picture. What would be the possible scenarios where i would be using it...Is it something like whenever i have target as mainframes then we need to use it for better performance......
Please enlighten me on this topic.
