You can configure a Jazz® Team Server that
is not installed on a z/OS® system to connect to a DB2® repository that is installed on a z/OS system.
About this task
These instructions describe how to connect to Db2 on
z/OS and are intended for database administrators. The
instructions apply to all platforms. Complete the tasks required for setting up a Db2 database on z/OS, beginning with the
following topic: Setting up a Db2 database on a z/OS system.Complete the steps in the following procedure to configure a Jazz Team Server that
is not on z/OS to use a Db2 repository on z/OS.
Procedure
If you are using a Db2 database on z/OS, the non-z/OS server still requires access to JDBC license
.jar files that are shipped with Db2 for
z/OS. To provide access to the license files, complete the
following steps:
- Create a directory called db2z within
the <JazzInstallDir>/server.
- In the db2z directory you created,
save copies of the db2jcc_license_cisuz.jar and db2jcc4.jar files
from your z/OS system.
Note:
- For Db2 version 10.1 , you can find these files in the Db2 10.1 SDSNJCC file system, which is mounted at a file path
like: /usr/lpp/db2a10/jdbc/classes.
- For Db2 version 11.1, you can find the files in the Db2 11.1 SDSNJCC file system, which is mounted at a file path
like: /usr/lpp/db2b10/jdbc/classes.
- For Db2 version 12.1, you can find the files in the Db2 12.1 SDSNJCC file system, which is mounted at a file path
like: /usr/lpp/db2c10/jdbc/classes.
- If you use WebSphere® Application
Server, add DB2Z_JDBC as a custom JVM property
and point to your <JazzInstallDir>/server/db2z directory.
The default path to the directory on Windows is C:\Program Files\IBM\JazzTeamServer\server\db2z,
unless you changed the path to one that contains no spaces, such as C:\IBM\JazzTeamServer\server\db2z.
On UNIX systems, the default
path to the directory is /opt/IBM/JazzTeamServer/server/db2z.
