Do you mean IBM DB2 Universal Database?

I search on google with the following text: php db2 and the first result was:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/db2/library/techarticle/scott/0614_scott.html

I think this link will help you.

In database connections, you can usually punt and use ODBC.

ODBC is generally slower and often has fewer features than a native
connection [*].

But it almost always works on just about any database out there,
and you can get what you want for a simple application.

*
This statement almost always has that one ODBC guy on the list telling
us how fast his ODBC implementation is and how it's better than all
the rest, and that's in the archives, so save him the trouble and go
find it.

OT:
Windows native database connections often aren't native at all,
but are thinly-disguised wrappers to an acquired technology, and
also often wrapped in successive generations of the next big thing
in DB connectivity from Microsoft, so in ASP you might have something
not unlike:
ASP connect - Ole connect - Jet connnect - ODBC connect - [mumble]
connect - native connect

Naturally, all of these function call wrappers add a little overhead,
and a clean ODBC connection with no intervening technologies will be
faster.

YMMV
