conversion</h1>
|
|
<div><p>Sometimes, when you are doing processing on a remote system, your
|
|
program might need to convert the data from one system so that it can be used
|
|
on the other. Distributed
|
|
Relational Database Architecture™ (DRDA<sup>®</sup>) support on the <span class="keyword">iSeries™ server</span> converts
|
|
the data automatically between other systems that use DRDA support. </p>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>When a <span class="keyword">DB2 Universal Database™ for iSeries</span> application
|
|
requester (AR) connects to an application server (AS), it sends information
|
|
that identifies its type. Likewise, the AS sends back information to the server
|
|
that identifies its processor type (for example, S/390<sup>®</sup> host or <span class="keyword">iSeries server</span>).
|
|
The two systems then automatically convert the data between them as defined
|
|
for this connection. This means that you do not need to program for architectural
|
|
differences between systems.</p>
