Monitor remote MaxDB

[Former Member]

We have installed SAP Content Server with MaxDB on Windows 2003 server for DMS project and would like to manage the MaxDB with DBACOCKPIT from our ERP 6.0 system.

Instructions say: "To monitor remote databases via database connections, you need to install appropriate database client software and the database-dependent part of the SAP dbsl libraries."

Where would we get these for i5/OS? We are on V6R1M0.

TIA,

Margie

Hi Margie,

yes, you are fully correct, you do need the DB client Software ...

Yes, this is since about 2 years available for MaxDB on iSeries ))

Go and get the patch lcc_2-20001357.sar (if you are on kernel 7.0 unicode)

... you have to check a bit for the installation instruction as you NEED to use QSECOFR for this installation as this is the only "root compatible" user on iSeries ... perhaps one of the porting team could shortly describe this here ...

I would like to recommend SAP Note #1037016 "IBM i: MaxDB Client Support for IBM i application".

Best regards,
