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.
three part alias is nothing great or new (it's only another mode of writing
for a feature, existing from the beginning of DB2/400). You could redirect
the output of a select statement to a local outfile with interactive SQL and
QMQRY and this is working for local files and remote files in the RDBDIR.
With ArdGate you could do this with files of any JDBC capable database. It
only works in one direction (to local) and you can't join or update tables
this way.

PS: @InfoSphere Federation Server: this product is not running on AS/400, i
Series, System i, Power i or how you would call OS/400 and it never did.
It's running on AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, Windows. It's very expensive and
installation and configuration will take much more time and it will be by
far easier to use a connect by ArdGate to MS SQL Server with a linked table
on SQL Server pointing to a table in DB2/400.
To clearify again: The requirement of the OP (updating a local table with
data from a remote table) is very basic for embedded SQL, but it's not
possible with a single SQL statement. The modified requiremen (insert local
select remote) is possible for all releases with QMQRY (STRQMQRY
<QueryName> OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) OUTFILE(MYLIB/MYFILE) RDB(MYRDB). If you are on
V7R1 you could use the brandnew very great feature three part alias, to do
the same thing.
