the gateway for data transfer between the host and the workstation.
Automatic client reroute description and setup (DB2 Connect server)
The main goal of the automatic client
reroute feature is to enable an IBM Data
Server Client application to recover from a loss of communications
so that the application can continue its work with minimal interruption.
As the name suggests, rerouting is central to the support of continuous
operations. But rerouting is only possible when there is an alternate
location that is identified to the client connection. Rerouting
is not required if using the IBM data server client as a DB2 Connect client. For details, see
the topic about IBM data
server client types.
