DB2 UDB Load stage

Use the IBM® DB2 UDB Load stage to write data to a DB2 database from an IBM InfoSphere® DataStage® server or parallel job.

When you use IBM InfoSphere DataStage to write DB2 data, you can choose from a collection of connectivity options. For most new jobs, use the DB2 Connector stage, which offers better functionality and performance than the DB2 UDB Load stage.

If you have jobs that use the DB2 UDB Load stage and want to use the connector, use the Connector Migration Tool to migrate jobs to use the connector.
