Sample VTAM definitions to connect two Db2 subsystems

Sample VTAM® definitions are provided to give you some guidance on setting up your network to connect two Db2 subsystems. The samples are not intended to give you information about all the options.

Tip: TCP/IP is the recommended communication protocol for communication with Db2 for z/OS®. Although SNA communication remains supported in Db2 13, SNA communication and the VTAM interface are deprecated, and support will be removed in the future. If your Db2 environment still uses VTAM communication, see Converting to TCP/IP communication from VTAM in Db2 for z/OS.

This set of definitions includes the basic definitions you need to connect two Db2 subsystems. Additional options for channel-to-channel and Network Control Program (NCP) connections are covered as well.
