Applies to:
Oracle Database Gateway for DRDA - Version 11.1 to 11.2.0.4Information in this document applies to any platform.

1 - What is an iASP (independant Active Storage Pool)?
iSeries servers allow you to work with multiple databases. The iSeries server provides a system database (often referred to as SYSBAS) and the ability to work with one or more user databases.
