Preparing the federated server to access data sources through JDBC of Type 2

For Type 2 JDBC data sources, no need to download JDBC driver which has been installed by default in folder $INSTANCE_HOME/sqllib/federation/jdbc/lib on federation server.

Before you begin

  • The federated server must be able to access JDBC data sources.
  • Check the federated parameter to ensure that federation is enabled.
Recommendation: For the following data sources, use the specialized native wrappers instead of JDBC wrapper:

Procedure

  1. Check the federated parameter to ensure that federation is enabled.
  2. Check the installed data source driver in $INSTANCE_HOME /sqllib/federation/jdbc/lib on Federation server.
  3. (Db2 and Db2 for z/OS® only) Check that the db2jcc4.jar and db2jcc_license_cisuz.jar files are located in the $INSTANCE_HOME/sqllib/java/ directory.
  4. Get the driver package information below which will be used when registering server definitions for JDBC data sources.
