A new release of the Distributed Transaction System for IBM RS/6000 AIX is now shipping.
DTS/AIX V2.1 is a full-function DTS environment for IBM RISC System/6000 hardware
running AIX operating system version 3.2.x or 4.x.
DTS/AIX V2.1 offers both TCP/IP and SNA LU6.2 communications, layered on the operating
system IP services and the optional SNA Server/6000 communication stack.
Via DTS a RS/6000 AIX system can access application services on and
exchange messages with other DTS environments like other UNIXes, VMS, CICS, MPE,
OS/400, OS/2, Windows...
The most significant improvements over the previous release 1.0 are
- Dynamic TCP/IP back-end subserver spawn for unlimited parallelism
- Parallel spooling capabilities
- Incoming IP address security check option
- DTSSTAT distributed status query utility
DTS/AIX V2.1 takes advantage of the DTS License Authorization Key mechanism. It allows more flexible
distribution of evaluation kits and software upgrades.

System product family is available.
