Best way is always DRDA. — Tom

do you have an implementation guide or example? Something like best practice? – Andreas

If you don’t already have it for Oracle, then you probably can’t use it. Oracle sells licenses for its DRDA Gateway and has implementation guides. You left out what you have available, so the “best” was all that could be suggested. What platform is Oracle running on? What OS version is on iSeries? — Tom

Why check out “infinitecorporation”? There is no listed product there that gives iSeries DB2 access to Oracle. Can you clarify what should be looked at? — Tom
