Hi,
I have a requirement to access an oracle database from message flow. The broker is running on z/OS and we are using Message Broker V6.1 running on main frames. The oracle database is on a Unix server.
I didn't have any idea of setting ODBC DSNs on the main frame. Can anyone please suggest me the steps that I should follow?

WMB in z/OS only connect native to DB2 with Compute node...BUT can you use JavaCompute node and use JDBC...with JDBC you have 2 options:
-Use clasic JDBC connection...Class.forName("Oracle...")
-Use JDBC factory
Is better use Use JDBC factory for performance and management...but..this option have problem in 6.1 for z/OS, I create PMR for IBM....maybe is a bug.
Clasic JDBC connection work fine.
OR can you use Compute node with Java..use External function:
Compute_Node--->External_Function--->Java--->JDBC--->Oracle
