We run QA on DB2, but on a red hat linux system.

Is DB2 on System I so different from other DB2 installs?

Hello Joram,

especially regarding to the SQL being used it is not really different at all. However there are some restrictions/differences when it comes to the check constraints - as described above. We are already using Activiti on DB2 LUW - we are running on Linux as well but we also need support for DB2 for System i.

We are interested in contributing support for DB2 on System i.

Regards
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,

We are always interested in contributions like this, but the issue is that we won't be able to run QA on System i. So it will be hard to maintain that contribution. Would you be able to do QA on System i with a continuous build system that we can access?

Best regards,
