   I can't tell you since I don't use DB2 anymore and we don't have a mainframe   
   where I work.  I would expect that DB2 would work the same regardless of OS.   
   (not counting OS limitations )  IBM didn't consider it a bug.  I was doing   
   work for American Transtech at the time (a subsidiary of ATT, certainly a   
   large enough customer to get attention).  People couldn't bind apps   
   concurrently, but since the machine was fast enough people wouldn't notice.
