Bruce,

The type of JDBC connection that uses db2jstrt 6790 is Type 3.

The newer approach for JDBC is Type 4 with three different db2jcc*.jar files replacing db2java.zip in the classpath.

The JDBC driver and DB2 connection parts of the Java program will have to be updated. I've heard that there are a few differences with the code for the SQL; so, I'd advise some testing before putting the modified Java code into Prod.

We are currently DB2 v8 fp14 on AIX and one of our old applications
requires that I run "DB2JSTRT 6790" so that it can communicate with DB2
over port 6790. I don't do java so I don't even know what "type" driver
this is - 1,2,3 ( obviously not type-4).
As I get ready to test a migration from v8 to v9.5, I notice that db2jstrt
is no longer available - does this mean that this application just drops
dead until it is re-written, or is there a work-around for this ?

Thanks,
Bruce
