This is not an answer to what you asked. (I don't know enough about CMS software.)
However, if you get down to the option of installing SQL Server, you might consider a few other possibilities.
1. We have successfully used a linked server connection to access IBMi DB2 database from PeopleSoft programs running on Windows. Maybe you could do something similar with a CMS running on Windows.
2. The JTOpen/Toolbox for Java (jt400.jar) classes can run in a JRE and provide remote access to DB2 files on the IBMi.
3. If your CMS can do web services, then creating web services that access content in DB2 files on the IBMi is an option, though perhaps a lot of work.
Just brainstorming some options in case no better options come along.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [WEB400] Web Content Management Software Package
I am researching the web for web content management software available in a .Net platform that uses the IBM i for content storage. Our current WCMS (IBM WCMS, Java Platform) is running with the website on a Linux box using IBM i for content storage. We are having difficulty finding CMS packages that work with the IBM i from a .Net platform. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Am I going to have to bite the bullet and install SQL Server?
