IBM DB2 Universal Database V6.1 Fundamentals
This
course will provide both database administrators and application
developers with the broad foundation skills and knowledge needed to be
successful with IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) V6.1 in a UNIX,
Windows, or OS/2 environment. This course will teach students the basic
concepts of DB2 UDB V6.1, creating and accessing database objects,
basic Structured Query Language (SQL), and managing databases.
Learn To
• Identify DB2 UDB product editions, their installation and verification, user interfaces, and security features.
• Create and access DB2 database objects, ensure data validation and
integrity, and create views and indexes.
• Master basic Structure Query Language (SQL).
• Manage database operations.

applies referential constraints given referential constraint
definitions.
Unit 3: Basic Structured Query Language Usage
• Display data using a SELECT statement.
• Specify rows to be retrieved from a table given certain requirements.
• Apply DB2 functions to groups within a table for a given scenario.
• Retrieve data from multiple tables given a scenario.
• Enter data into a table using an INSERT statement.
• Modify data in a table using an UPDATE statement.
• Remove data from a table using a DELETE statement.
• Identify considerations in embedding SQL in applications for DB2.
• Sequence the steps to prepare to run an application program.

IBM DB2 Universal Database V6.1 Application Development
This
course will provide application developers with the specific skills and
knowledge needed to be successful in an IBM DB2 Universal Database
(UDB) V6.1 application development environment for UNIX, Windows or
OS/2 platforms. This course will teach students about SQL application
development, application development objects, embedded SQL programming,
and dynamic SQL programming.
Learn To
• Use SQL functions in DB2 Applications.
• Use different application objects in DB2, such as schema, user-defined types, user
-defined functions, and stored procedures.
• Use SQL within an application.
• Use dynamic SQL within an application
Content
Unit 1: SQL Application Development
• Combine data from two or more tables using a join.
• Combine two queries into a single result table using set operations.
• Retrieve data in a restricted condition using a subquery.
• Retrieve data with referenced values using a correlated subquery.
• Retrieve data using scalar functions.
• Retrieve summarized data for groups using grouping functions.
• Create different levels of aggregation data using GROUPING SETS operations.
• Identify characteristics of STAR schemas for table design and index design.
• Code combined SQL statements using compound SQL.
• Create a local temporary table that can be referenced in an SQL
statement using a common table expression.
• Retrieve data with logical conditions using a CASE expression in a given scenario.
Unit 2: Application Development Objects
• Identify valid DB2 object names.
• Control a schema using a SET SCHEMA statement.
• Identify valid User-Defined Type (UDT) comparisons.
• Identify the User-Defined Function (UDF) type and its function.
• Register stored procedures using a CREATE PROCEDURE statement.
Unit 3: Embedded SQL Programming
• Identify the general tasks of an application containing embedded SQL statements.
• Declare the host variables that correspond to specific columns in a table.
• Code a statement that uses host variables in queries using an embedded SELECT.
• Code a statement that uses host variables to change data within a specific application.
• Analyze the content of host variables to determine whether a column contains null values.
• Identify situations in which to use cursors in an application that contains embedded SQL.
• Code a statement that uses a specific type of cursor to manipulate data using embedded SQL.
• Code a positioned update using embedded SQL.
• Match SQLCA elements with the error-handling information they contain.
• Identify the transaction that produces a specific effect on a database.
• Identify the characteristics of type 1 and type 2 connections to a database.
• Identify which isolation level is necessary to ensure a specific degree of data integrity.
• Identify the input and output of a PREP statement using deferred binding.
• Perform the steps to precompile and bind an application using specific parameters.
• Identify the privileges necessary to develop an application using embedded static SQL.
