SQL that accesses tables in different DB2 subsystems
...is there a way to do it?

Running DB2 V7 on OS/390 - want to be able to access tables that reside in different subsystems with the same SQL. Is there some sort of DB2 technology that provides for this sort of functionality?

Thanks.

This has been discussed before, e.g. here:

Ask your DB2 DBA or DB2 systems programmer about DDF (distributed data facility).

No need to ask - this is simply not implemented.
you can access different DB2 systems in the same unit of work, but not in the same SQL statement

Maybe Grumpy does't really need both tables to be in the same single SQL statement. One can almost always make it work with some program logic.
