DB2/2 Handler
The database handler for DB2 is defined in a similar manner to that described for ODBC or JDBC. The following INI options are valid for installing the DB2 handler.
< DBHandler:DB2 >
Install = DB2W32->DB2InstallHandler
or
InstallMod = DB2W32
InstallFunc = DB2InstallHandler
The Install option specifies the DLL module name and handler function name. This function is linked dynamically when the handler is initialized. These INI options are not necessary for tables specifying DB2 as the database type. DB2 is also supported via static linking under z/OS, and currently only version 3.1 has been tested in that environment.
Here are other INI options that can be specified for DB2.
Database = Database name (no default)
The Database option specifies the name of the database and is required.
Bindfile = Bind file name (no default)
The Bindfile option specifies the name of a bind file which provides the bound access plan for the database. The DB2LIB.BND file is provided with the system’s DB2LIB and can be used as a bind file.
