Db2 Utilities Suite for z/OS

Important: In Db2® 13, Db2 Utilities Suite for z/OS® is available as an optional product. You must separately order and purchase a license to such utilities, and discussion of those utility functions in this publication is not intended to otherwise imply that you have a license to them.

The Db2 Utilities Suite for z/OS is designed to work exclusively with DFSORT or Db2 Sort for z/OS.

Db2 13 utilities can use the DFSORT program regardless of whether you purchased a license for DFSORT on your system. For more information about DFSORT, see https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/dfsort.

Db2 utilities can use IBM® Db2 Sort for z/OS as an alternative to DFSORT for utility SORT and MERGE functions. Use of Db2 Sort for z/OS requires the purchase of a Db2 Sort for z/OS license. For more information about Db2 Sort for z/OS, see Db2 Sort for z/OS documentation.
