Linking databases on BS2000 systems

openUTM supports coordination with the following database systems:

• UDS/SQL

• SESAM/SQL

• XA

• CIS

• LEASY (the LEASY file systems behaves like a database system in relation to openUTM)

A UTM application can work in coordination with up to three (up to eight with special release) different databases. Each database system is defined with a DATABASE statement for the KDCDEF run.

DATABASE statement in section "DATABASE - define the database system (BS2000 systems)": Definition of the database with which the UTM application works together:

• ENTRY=

  Entry name of the supported database, which can be seen in the table in section "DATABASE - define the database system (BS2000 systems)".

• USERID= and PASSWORD=

  User name and password for the database system, supported only for Oracle
  databases (TYPE=XA).

  Alternatively, the user name and the password can be transferred to the database system by means of start parameters.

  It is possible to modify the user name and/or the password by means of dynamic administration.

• LIB=

  Object module library from which the connection module to the database system is to be loaded dynamically.

• TYPE=

  Type identifier of the database system.

• • • • • You can connect to database systems not contained in the list above but that support the IUTMDB interface with TYPE=DB.

        • The link to a XA resource is generated with TYPE=XA.
