One way to go about the replication would be to use the MySQL IBMDB2i
storage engine. If you did, you could handle the replication entirely from
the System i side. Read more about it here The DB2 for i (IBMDB2I) Storage
Engine for MySQL on IBM i
Download<http://solutions.mysql.com/engines/ibm_db2_storage_engine.html>

The IBMDB2i storage engine requires at least MySQL 5.1.35 (which ships with
the ZendServer 5 beta) to run. ZendCore ships with MySQL 5.0.xxx, so you
would need to upgrade to a newer version of MySQL to go this route.
