Personally I'd look into using SQL remote database functionality.  For the 
iSeries setup is easy just ADDRDBDIRE(no purchase necessary) for the mainframe 
& voila (or viola hehe)...on the mainframe side I can only guess...you may need 
DB2/Connect or an equivalent middleware.... 

Darn no Tickle Me Elmo?? How 'bout an Xbox 360??


Thanks,

How well synchronized do these files need to be? Up to the minute, or can 
they be synched by a once a day update?

ISeries - Mainframe Communications






All,

 

I need some suggestions.  I have just been given an assignment to research 
a
project to permit our local ISeries RPG programs to communicate with and
access data in a cross reference file on our 390 mainframe.  I am looking
for advice on how to use native devices or third party products or 
anything
else out there.  One system I have already been asked to look at is MQ
Series.

 

The design we envision would maintain a mirror in each country's iSeries
system of the mainframe file.  The system needs to keep the mirror file
synchronized with the mainframe on its own.  The reason we need this 
design
as opposed to accessing the mainframe file directly is to keep the local
system running in the event of a communications interruption.

 

Sorry, I can't award a new Tickle Me Elmo doll to the winning idea.  All I
can do is offer my thanks and gratitude.

 

Regards.
