Ensuring the Db2® libraries are available to FM/Db2

You can allocate the Db2® libraries required by FM/Db2 using one of the following methods:

• You can include the Db2® libraries in your TSO logon procedure; or in a CLIST or EXEC run as part of the TSO logon procedure; or in a CLIST or EXEC executed prior to the initialization of FM/Db2. This method is not appropriate if FM/Db2 will be connecting to Db2® systems at different version/maintenance levels. If you use this method you might not need to specify the Db2® libraries in the FMN2SSDM macros, but you will still need to review the contents of the FMN2POPT options module. See Changing the default options.
• Specify the Db2® libraries in the FMN2SSDM macro entry for the Db2® system. This is the preferred method and allows FM/Db2 to connect to Db2® systems at different version/maintenance levels. The Db2® libraries are allocated as part of the FM/Db2 connect process, and de-allocated at the end of the FM/Db2 session, or when FM/Db2 connects to a different Db2® system. See FMN2SSDM.
