SAP on DB2 Universal Database for OS/390 and z/OS Multiple Components in One Database (MCOD)

The Multiple Components in One Database (MCOD) feature of SAP enables a reduction in the number of DB2 systems that need to be installed and maintained. This significantly simplifies overall database administration and is considered one of the major DB2 competitive advantages. This IBM Redbooks publ...
