You must have DB2 Connect installed, in some version (Personal or Enterprise). Then you need to catalog the DB2 system as a database on the Linux instance, with a Node for the MVS/DB2/port and as a DCS database (three catalog statements): catalog tcpip node <yournodename> remote <mvsIPorDNS> server <MVSDB2PORT>; catalog database <nameDB2islisteningon> as <LinuxlocalAlias> at node <yournodename> authentication dcs; catalog dcs database <nameDB2islisteningon> as <nameDB2islisteningon>;

Please respond to

Howdy:
How do I access a DB/2 database from a perl script?
I have DB/2 version 6.1.1 on an MVS mainframe and I'm
trying to connect from a RedHat Linux box. I imagine that I
need the DBI modules and perhaps tools to install from
IBM.
What else do I need to connect to the mainframe database?
Someone wouldn't have happened to document / outlined
their methods, would they?
Thanks!
