IBM DB2 Universal Database for z/OS, V8 -- Reengineered for e-business Leadership

(Corrected on January 30, 2003) In the Technical Information section under Operating System and Support Programs, deleted V1.7 from the second bullet - DFSMS.

Technical Information

Hardware Requirements

Processors

DB2 Universal Database^® (UDB) for z/OS™, V8 operates on any processor that supports z/Architecture™, including z800 and z900, or comparable processor. The processor must have enough real storage to satisfy the combined requirements of:

DB2^®
z/OS
Other customer-required applications

In addition, 64-bit virtual addressing support will probably require increased real storage for a workload compared to DB2 for z/OS and OS/390^® V7.

The requirement for 64-bit addressing means that z/OS Bimodal Migration Accommodation software cannot be used with DB2 V8.

The configuration must include sufficient I/O devices to support the requirements for system output, system residence, and system data sets. Sufficient disk storage must be available to satisfy the users' information storage requirements and can consist of any direct-access facility supported by the system configuration and the programming system.

In addition to listing auxiliary storage and data communications devices, this section identifies function-dependent hardware requirements and virtual storage requirements.

Auxiliary Storage

DB2 is independent of both disk and tape device type. The customer can use any magnetic, optical, or tape device that is supported by the data facilities component of z/OS for the DB2 data sets.

The following DB2 data sets are supported by the following device types:

Active recovery log data sets: Disk
Archive recovery log data sets: Disk, tape
Image copy data sets: Disk, tape
Bootstrap data sets: Disk
User data sets: Disk
DB2 catalog data sets: Disk
Work data sets (for utilities): Disk, tape

If these data sets are on a disk that is shared with other z/OS systems, the customer should use global resource serialization to prevent concurrent access by more than one z/OS system.

The minimum disk space requirement, based on installing DB2 using the panel default values, is approximately 1 GB. Users need additional disk space for their data.

If the customer uses dual logging and tape for the log archiving device, the customer needs at least two tape drives.

Data Communications Devices

DB2 operations can be controlled from:

The system console
Authorized IMS/ESA^® Transaction Manager terminals
Authorized CICS^® terminals
TSO terminals (by authorized users)

For information about the data communication devices supported by IMS/ESA Transaction Manager, CICS, and TSO, refer to the documentation for these products.

Software Requirements

This section lists licensed programs, or specific elements and features of licensed programs, that are required in the DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8 environment. You can use subsequent versions or releases of the programs, unless stated otherwise. This section also identifies the requirements that are associated with specific DB2 capabilities, as well as optional programs that you can use with DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8.

Refer to the following Web sites for the most current information:

http://www.ibm.com/software/data/db2/os390/availsum.html

http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=71&org=SW&doc=1039854

http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zSeries/zos/support/zos_eos_dates.htm

Operating System and Support Programs

DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8 requires the function that is provided by the following licensed programs or their equivalents; subsequent versions or releases of any product are acceptable.

z/OS V1.3 Base Services (5694-A01) with the following optional elements:
- DFSMS
- z/OS V1.3 Security Server (RACF^®)
IRLM V2.2 for DB2 V8

Virtual Storage Requirements

The amount of space needed for the common service area (CSA) below the 16 MB line is less than 40 KB for each DB2 subsystem and 24 KB for each IRLM. High concurrent activity, parallelism, or high contention can require more CSA.

Most of the DB2 common data resides in the extended common service area (ECSA). Most modules, control blocks, and buffers reside in the extended private area.

Function-Dependent Program Requirements

The following functions of DB2 require specific licensed programs, or features of licensed programs, before they can be used:

Application Execution: Applications written in high-level programming languages, such as applications or stored procedures written in the C language and using the ODBC or CLI interfaces to DB2, require the Application Enablement Services element of z/OS at runtime. Applications or stored procedures written in Java™, such as those using the JDBC or SQLJ interfaces to DB2, require IBM Developer Kit for OS/390, Java 2 Technology Edition (5655-D35) at run time.
Extenders:
- Audio, Image, Video and Extenders: Use of these extenders requires Language Environment^®, which is part of the Application Enablement Services element of z/OS.
- XML Extender: Use of the XML Extender requires Language Environment, which is part of the Application Enablement Services element of z/OS, as well as the IBM XML Parser for z/OS, C++ Edition, to be available at runtime. The required parser is provided with Release 3 of the XML Toolkit for z/OS and OS/390 (5655-D44). Use of either the XMLFile type or the "Getting Started" material requires the z/OS UNIX^® System Services element of z/OS to be available.
- Text Extender: The DB2 Connect^® product provides an optional administration client for the DB2 Text Extender. A license for one of the following products is required for this capability:
  - DB2 Connect Personal Edition, V7.2 (20P5257)
  - DB2 Connect Personal Edition, V7.2 (5648-D40)
  - DB2 Connect Enterprise Edition, V7.2 (5648-D42)

Planning Information

Customer Responsibilities: Customers should review the sections in this announcement that describe the hardware and software dependencies for DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8.

DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8 has support for migration from V7. Customers not yet on V7, should plan to migrate to DB2 UDB for z/OS and OS/390, V7 as preparation for a migration to V8.

Migration Considerations: IBM added many universal database capabilities in DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8 and deprecated support for some functions. As you prepare to migrate your subsystems, you should be aware of the following changes:

Net.Data has been stabilized as of V7. WebSphere is the strategic IBM solution for delivering DB2 data to Web applications. V7 of Net.Data may be ordered as a feature of DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8 to provide stability and compatibility during application transition from Net.Data to a WebSphere Application Server environment.
Workload Manager (WLM) managed stored procedure address spaces is the strategic solution for stored procedure support in DB2 UDB for z/OS. DB2 managed stored procedure spaces do not support all of the SQL enhancements and capabilities of DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8 Migration to WLM managed stored procedure spaces is recommended to obtain the full stored procedure capability of DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8
DRDA is the strategic solution for network computing support in DB2 UDB for z/OS. IBM has no plans for additional private protocol enhancements. DRDA replaces the private protocol access. Private protocol does not support stored procedures or TCP/IP, both of which are available with DB2 for OS/390, V5 and above. Private protocol also does not support network computing enhancements in V6, V7, and V8. Conversion of private protocol applications to DRDA is recommended to obtain the full network computing capability of DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8.

For more detailed information on migrating to V8, refer to the DB2 UDB for z/OS, V8 Installation Guide (GC26-9636).

Installability: Customers should refer to the Program Directory shipped with the product.

Packaging: The DB2 UDB Server for z/OS, except as noted below, will be shipped on 3480 cartridges.

Also included will be a program directory, and under separate cover, one copy of the entitled publications.
