<h1 class="topictitle1">Manage an <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> distributed
relational database</h1>
<div><p>Managing a distributed relational database on the <span class="keyword">iSeries™ server</span> requires
broad knowledge of the resources and tools within the <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> licensed program.</p>
<p>This topic collection provides an overview of the various functions available
with the <span class="keyword">operating system</span> that can
help you administer a distributed relational database on the <span class="keyword">iSeries server</span>.
This topic explains distributed relational database functions and tasks in
a network of <span class="keyword">iSeries server</span>s (a <em>like</em> environment).
Differences between <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> distributed
relational database functions in a like and unlike environment are presented
only in a general discussion in this topic.</p>
<p>A properly implemented distributed relational database makes it easy to
access a database on a remote server, process a database file without knowing
where it resides, and move parts of a database to another server without requiring
changes to the application programs. </p>
<p>To effectively implement your distributed relational database, you should
be familiar with the requirements in the following key areas:</p>
<div class="p"> <ul><li>The Planning and design topic discusses some important considerations
when planning for and designing a distributed database.</li>
<li>The Security topic provides information about the security considerations
for an <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> distributed
relational database, including communications and DRDA<sup>®</sup> access to remote relational databases.</li>
<li>The Configuring topic provides information about ways to enter data into
a distributed database, along with a discussion of subsystems and relational
database directories on the <span class="keyword">iSeries server</span>.</li>
<li>The Manage a distributed relational database topic discusses ways that
you can administer the distributed relational database work being done across
a network.</li>
<li>The Data availability and protection topic discusses tools and techniques
to protect programs and data on an <span class="keyword">iSeries server</span> and
reduce recovery time in the event of a problem. It also provides information
about alternatives that ensure your network users have access to the relational
databases and tables across the network when it is needed.</li>
<li>The Performance topic discusses ways to improve on the design of your
network, the system, and your database.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<p>If you want more information about another IBM<sup>®</sup> system that supports DRDA, see the
information provided with that system or the books listed in Distributed relational
database library and Other IBM distributed relational database platform libraries
in Related information.</p>
