The broker uses ODBC to connect to databases. You must, therefore, define ODBC data source names (DSNs) for the broker database on each system that hosts a broker. At any one time there can be multiple connections using the same DSN definition.
On z/OS systems, see Data sources on z/OS for information about enabling connections to
databases.
On Linux (zSeries platform) and Linux (POWER platform), the only supported database manager
is DB2; the broker connect to the
databases directly using the DB2 supplied driver and do not use a driver manager.
The DB2 alias is used as the DSN.
For more information about the 32-bit and 64-bit considerations, see Broker database connections
When you have defined the appropriate DSNs, you must also configure the environment so that the broker can access the correct database libraries (see Setting your environment to access databases).
