The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
There are tools out there that permit you to grab "off-platform" data. The
price tags are not that bad, compared to the cost of rolling your own.

Subject: For Christmas, I want
For Christmas, I want the IBM Rochester system i team to do
something significant to make the i a true server of choice.
I think I remember that 'server of choice' phrase from times
past, but the gap I continue to see is the difficulty of querying
foreign SQL DB from DB2 on i.
Some years ago, from MS Sql Server or Access I could "easily"
create 'pass-through' queries against DB2. But the reverse
required a purchase.
Now, I am working through that same dilemma and wonder why
DB2 on i does not have native ability to exchange data with other
ANSI compliant Db.
Out of the box, so to speak.
