Re: separate DEV, TEST, & PROD environments survey

IASPs do allow for a nice testing tool, seems to me - they are essentially mini LPARs - you can have the exact same set of libraries in each IASP, you just activate one at at a time as needed.

Data can be saved and restored between IASPs, even when they are not activated.

To the question here, they are implemented as a second level in the IFS - multi-level of a sort! Heh! That'll probably raise a question I won't go into, as I won't have an answer.

If you need a hierarchical file system you can use something outside of
the qsys.lib file system.

As others have said, does SQL server, or other DB2 wannabes, support
hierarchical data for their data accessed via SQL?

There is something kind of like this. Not that I've played with it. But
independent ASPs (or IASP) might be an option. However, I think that puts
you into the "one or the other" category.
