Hello all, my first post here. Hoping someone can help.
If I understand correctly from the
Python driver's page on GitHub a licensed DB2 Connect product is
required when connecting from Linux to a DB2 on i Series (AS/400). Further it appears like there are two options:
a) server-side DB2 Connect Unlimited Edition for System i, or
b) client-side DB2 Connect license file.
The links that follow redirect to non-existent page on IBM Community (even though I am logged in there). You may want to update those.
I have little experience with DB2 and am working with client's personnel who may not as familiar with their DB2 server stack either.
How can one tell if the server-side DB2 Connect Unlimited Edition for System i is available/activated and if so on what port it listens?
Please help with commands that a system or database administrator can run.
Lastly, in case either a client or server-side license needs to be purchased, who should they get in touch with. How to obtain a trial license?
