Specifying the DB2 subsystem to perform the query

z/OS Communications Server: IP User's Guide and Commands
SC27-3662-00

An MVS™ system can run several DB2® systems simultaneously, each known by a subsystem name of up to four characters. For example, you can have a DB2 test system called DB2T and a DB2 production system called DB2P.

FTP connects to a DB2 system to have it execute a DB2 query. You can specify what DB2 system FTP should connect to with the following SITE or LOCSITE parameter:
SITE/LOCSITE DB2=
If you want the FTP server to have the DB2T system perform your queries, specify:
SITE DB2=DB2T
If you want the FTP client to have the DB2P system perform your queries, specify:
LOCSITE DB2=DB2P

The default DB2 system name is DB2. You can change the default with the DB2 parameter in the FTP.DATA data set. See Changing local site defaults using FTP.DATA for more information about the FTP.DATA data set.
