Connecting from Unix to z/OS is not free. You need a license for this.
You need to install and configure DB2 client to do that. Once you have DB2 installed on your UNIX box you will need to catalog the z/OS system and database if you run DB2 Connect locally. If you don't run DB2 Connect locally then you will need to catalog the node to point to the DB2 Connect server.
The script does not point to the server directly
here is a simple example
#!/bin/ksh
db2 connect to yourdb
db2 "select * from your blah.table"
db2 terminate

DB2_CLOSE(3) 1 DB2_CLOSE(3)
db2_close - Closes a database connection
SYNOPSIS
bool db2_close (resource $connection)
DESCRIPTION
This function closes a DB2 client connection created with db2_connect(3) and returns the corresponding resources to the database server.
If you attempt to close a persistent DB2 client connection created with db2_pconnect(3), the close request is ignored and the persistent
DB2 client connection remains available for the next caller.
PARAMETERS
o $connection
- Specifies an active DB2 client connection.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Closing a connection
The following example demonstrates a successful attempt to close a connection to an IBM DB2, Cloudscape, or Apache Derby database.
<?php
$conn = db2_connect('SAMPLE', 'db2inst1', 'ibmdb2');
$rc = db2_close($conn);
if ($rc) {
echo "Connection was successfully closed.";
}
?>
The above example will output:
Connection was successfully closed.
