Specifies whether the DB2 access service accepts and returns MDI Database Gateway set statements, global variables, and a few error messages that client applications use to make processing decisions. Sybase recommends that you use current DB2 access service settings.
GatewayCompatible=[no | yes]
no
no indicates that the DB2 access service recognizes DB2 access service settings only.
yes indicates that the DB2 access service recognizes both DB2 access service settings and MDI Database Gateway settings.
If your client applications do not require MDI Database Gateway settings, set this value to no to use DB2 access service settings only.
If your current client applications use previous MDI Database Gateway global variables and set statements, set this property to yes to allow your applications to continue using MDI Database Gateway settings.
