Re: Question about UDB on iSeries

IBM ... WATCH THIS THREAD!  <grin>

Please keep in mind that I know **ZERO** about the iSeries and UDB.
We are considering a conversion from z/OS on zSeries to i5OS on
iSeries. The company doing the presentation basically said that
everything that we need, with a few exceptions, is integrated into
the i5OS on the iSeries. In particular UBD is integrated (so we don't
need to buy it). But I was wondering if any iSeries people out there
have an opinion about the lack of requirement for any extra software
to support UDB on iSeries. Such as performance monitors,
reorganization utilities, anything at all? I'm confused (as usual)
about why UDB on iSeries does not require any such software while it
appears, to me, that DB2 on z/OS really requires a lot of extra cost
software. This is the whole reason that we are considering this
conversion. z/OS simply requires too much extra cost software
compared to other platforms.
