Hi
Why should a mainframe job be compiled and run on a mainframe while server and parallel jobs can be compiled and run on a DS server ?

Not really all that rare. Microfocus has been doing COBOL on tons of platforms for what... decades now?ray.wurlod wrote:Because COBOL compilers on UNIX are very rare beasts indeed!
COBOL compilers on Windows are even rarer.

Nothing at all, but it answers the original question.Adam_Clone wrote:what does that have to do with obtaining the data from somethn like a DB2 database on a mainframe ?
- A mainframe job is a job to be executed in a mainframe environment.
A parallel job is a job to be executed in a parallel (SMP or MPP) environment.
A server job is a job to be executed on a single DataStage server.
