Members,

We need to install DB2 Connect on a machine and access DB2 on Mainframe in a different location.I know the LPAR IP address of the mainframe but I want to know what port I should use to connect. Is there any way to know what port is on the Mainframe end.

yadav2005,

Assuming that Distributed Data Facility (DDF) on z/OS is running you can use the following command from DB2 commands menu

Code:

-DISPLAY DDF


The TCPPORT value in the results is the port number.

Read about the DISPLAY DDF command here

Before installing the DB2 connect you also might wanna read this

Kolusu,

Thanks a lot for such a detailed information and I am very much clear about DDF and pre-requisite for DB2 Connect and I was able to know the TCPPORT number .
