Does DB2 8.2 client support DB2 9.5 Server

Hello All,

We have installed UDB 9.5 on HP-UX IA64 machine. We would like to
install DB2 8.2 client on HP-UX PA-RISC V11.11. We want to install
only on HPUX V 11.11 since we have licensed version MF Cobol on this.

My question is: Can DB2 8.2 client talk to DB2 server 9.5?

Please let me know asap.

Thanks in advance.

Let me quote the Information Center for DB2 9.5 :

Combinations of DB2 Universal Database (UDB) Version 8, DB2 Version 9.1, and
DB2 Version 9.5

DB2 Universal DatabaseT (UDB) Version 8 and DB2 Version 9.1 clients can
access a remote DB2 Version 9.5 server. Note the following restriction:
There is a restriction when a client is located on the same system as a DB2
server, and they are different versions. In this case, local
client-to-server connections using Interprocess Communication (IPC) are not
supported. Instead, a connection can be established by treating the
connection as a remote connection (called a loopback connection) using
TCP/IP.
IBM® Data Server Client, IBM Data Server Runtime Client, and IBM Data Server
Driver for ODBC, CLI, and .NET Version 9.5 can access DB2 Version 9.1 and
DB2 UDB Version 8 servers. However, new DB2 Version 9.5 functionality is not
available.

Access to DB2 Version 9.1 or Version 9.5 servers from DB2 UDB Version 7
clients is not supported.

Thank you for the details.
If I am right, can I use the all the features of the server 9.5 using
client 8.2?.
e.g: optimistic locking is new feature in 9.5 server, can I still get
this feature if I use client 8.2?.

Please let me know.

Thanks,
Prakash

You can use all the DB2 9.5 features that do not require the client.
Ie. you can use e.g. the RID_BIT() function and ROW_CHANGE_TOKE N, but
you cannot exploit the JDBC client integrated optimistic locking that
hides all the SQL from you.

Hello Out there! I have a DB2 V7.2 Database (Fix11) on Win 2000 Professional. It was before a NT 4 based Domain - now it is a Win 2000 Domain. The database server is a domain member. Now sometimes Win 2000 Clients can't connect to the database. They connect over TCP/IP. The db2log says that the function getHostByName failed. It seems to be only on new installed win 2000 Workstations. Already installed WS have NOT this problem.

Hi... I've got a .Net client to a soap service that works for the most part, but there are a couple of things I'd like to improve: 1) the first request to the client wrapper always takes 12-15 seconds even though the web server shows < a half second spent on the request. What takes so much time for the client wrapper to warm up? All subsequent requests, even to the same method, take the half second.

<!-- When deploying the service library project, the content of the config file must be added to the host's app.config file. System.Configuration does not support config files for libraries. --> I assume "libraries" here to mean DLL's. If that's the case, is there any way to supply both ends of a service (client and host) with the code for the class that describes the contact WITHOUT a duplication in source code? Thanks.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
