Connecting CLM v6.0.0 to DB2 on IBM i
Hello!
I struggle to find instructions for installation and configuration of a DB2-database set on IBM i (iSeries, AS400...).
Setup is CLM v6.0.0 on Windows 2012 R2 Server, Tomcat 7, currently Derby database.
When trying to (test) connect to "DB2 on i" for migration I get error on missing drivers for com.ibm.as400.access.AS400JDBCDriver, see below.
It should apparently be installed in a directory under JazzTeamServer/server/db2i
I choose
and use a JDBC connection string as suggested (with customer paths of course)
jdbc:as400://SERVER/COLLECTION/;user=ADMIN;password={password};metadata source=1;
I think I found a driver and I placed the jar file as indicated by error message; questions are
- what is required for it to be recognized
- what is the correct version
- are there any licenses etc that needs to be setup
?
The IBM i hosts are well established in the customers environment but the Windows 2012 R2 Server that we run Jazz on is fresh out of the box, so possibly there are some IBM i integrations missing?

One answer
I have tried to mitigate my issues like so:
- downloaded (latest) jt400 driver for IBM Toolbox
Q: is this not the driver version to use? In that case, which is to be used?
- created ...\db2i-directory and placed the driver jar-file there
- restarted the server
- tried the jdbc-connection to that IBM i DB2 databases by running server configuration
Got no change compared to when the driver was not in place
To me, it looks like the server startup script should be able to find it thus - but it apparently don't:
Installed driver: ...\JazzTeamServer\server\db2i\jt400-6.7.jar
Definition in server.startup.bat:
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -DDB2I_JDBC="%DB2I_JDBC%" |
