Hi,
Does anyone know if FDM can connect to DB2?
If yes could you tell me what details I would need for the script (App name, Instance etc)?
Thanks in advance

Please be more specific in your query:
1. Do you mean can an FDM Application reside in a DB2 RDBMS?
OR
2. Do you mean can FDM pull financial data out of another application that resides in a DB2 RDBMS?
Thank you, -
FDM cannot be built on DB2 but you could still write an import integration script to retrieve data from a DB2 database.

I meant, can FDM pull Data from a DB2 database? Sorry for the misunderstanding!

Hello,
Most anything can be done via VBScripting. If you have a way in pure VBScripting (not shelling out or batch commands) doing the work then it can be incorporated into FDM.
The administration guide even provides an example of how to make an ODBC connection to a repository. Obviously you will just need to change the string to an DB2 ODBC string.
Thank you, -
Hi,
Thanks for that. Just one more thing, could you tell me the page in the guide? I have looked at some of the examples for clues but am not sure which one! -
Page 196 of the 11.1.1.3 admin guide.
Relevant documentation can be downloaded here:
