Windows stand-alone: Set up a remote DB2 for z/OS database
View information on installing and setting up DB2 for z/OSto work with WebSphere Portal.
1. Install DB2 for z/OS
View information on how to install DB2 for z/OS for use with IBMWebSphere Portal.
2. Use JCL templates to set up DB2 for z/OS
If you plan to use a DB2 for z/OS database, you can use JCL template files to help you customize the database based on configuration prior to using DB2 for z/OS database.
Create users for IBM DB2 Universal Database™ for z/OS to work with IBM WebSphere Portal.
4. Create remote DB2 for z/OS databases
A remote database resides on a different machine than WebSphere Portal. You must manually create the required databases before configuring WebSphere Portal to work with DB2 for z/OS.
5. Grant privileges to DB2 for z/OS database users
Configuration and runtime database users are granted a different set of privileges, depending on whether these users are schema owners or not. You can create a copy of the SQL scripts and edit this copy to manually grant permissions to configuration and runtime database users.
6. Create the Java Content Repository database
View information on setting up Java™ Content Repository database to work with WebSphere Portal.
7. Assign custom DB2 for z/OS table spaces
The repository of WebSphere Portal consists of many tables and indices that are created in default table spaces. When using an existing set of table spaces for the objects of the repository, specify this when executing the database transfer to the target database system.
8. Configure WebSphere Portal to use DB2 for z/OS
View information on manually transferring data to theDB2 for z/OS you have installed and set up. Follow these steps to transfer WebSphere Portal, and Java Content Repository databases to DB2 for z/OS. As an alternative to the manual database transfer procedure described here, you can use the configuration wizard to complete the database transfer task. However, you cannot specify all settings through the configuration wizard. For example, regardless of the method used to transfer data, run a configuration task to create JMS resources as described in this topic.
