Configuring DB2 Connect EE, ASE or UE to Support Siebel Web Client
This task is a step in Process of Setting Up DB2 Connect. Using DB2 Connect EE, ASE or UE to support the Siebel Web Client involves:
- A Siebel Server, running Application Object Managers to support the Siebel Web Client. In some cases, DB2 Connect EE is also installed on this computer.
- Optionally, an additional computer on which you install DB2 Connect EE, to act as a gateway to the database.
- DB2 for z/OS.
- Individual workstations running Siebel Web Client.
This approach is illustrated in the middle and lower parts of Figure 1. Perform the following steps to configure DB2 Connect EE for a server computer. To connect to DB2 using DB2 Connect EE
- Using vendor instructions, install DB2 Connect EE on a server computer.
The DB2 Connect EE Server computer functions as a DB2 server, with protocol support for DB2 for z/OS.
You can also add DB2 Connect to an existing server on which DB2 is already installed.
- On the DB2 Connect computer, upgrade DB2 Connect to the appropriate Fix Pack.
For further information, see About the Required IBM Fix Packs.
- On the DB2 Connect EE Server computer, catalog your DB2 for z/OS database, as appropriate, using the DB2 Client Configuration Assistant or the DB2 Command Line Processor.
After installation, use a standard DB2 client to access the DB2 Connect EE Server.
