5.2.2 Toolbox JDBC driver

command, by default, does not show prestart jobs that are waiting for a connection. However, if you press F14, they are shown.

Figure 5-5shows the QSQSRVR jobs in the Work with Active Jobs display. Look at the Status column. PSRW indicates that the job is waiting for a connection. These are the jobs that were not shown until you pressed F14. If you press F14 again, you hide these jobs. In this example, F14 was pressed so jobs with status PSRW are shown as well as those with other status indicators such as CNDW.

Using F14 is a convenient way to check whether any of the jobs are in use. If the jobs appear in one view but not in the other, then they are started but not in use. If they do not appear in either view, it is most likely that the Start jobs parameter is still set to *NO and the jobs have not been used. Be sure to carefully check the spelling of the job name. If it is incorrect, you do not receive any error message.

5.2.2 Toolbox JDBC driver

There are two versions of the Toolbox driver:

The licensed program version

The Open Source edition

Both version use the same server jobs. Therefore, you choice in version does not affect the iSeries configuration.

The most likely reason for using the Toolbox driver is that you are running WebSphere and System21 on different systems. If WebSphere is not on another iSeries server, then you use the Toolbox driver. If WebSphere is on another iSeries server, then you use either driver. However the Toolbox driver may be easier to use and perform better.

The configuration is slightly different depending on whether you are using V5R1 or V4R5. We recommend that you do not use V4R4. However, if you were using it, then it would be the same as V4R5.

Note that the number of potential users of the Toolbox driver is greater. The clients can be on other systems, even ones that are not iSeries servers. The servers are shared by ODBC so non-Java applications can be clients to these server jobs.
