I know that some DBAs are tasked to work in mixed environments were they should maintain different databases. If on the list are people who made a transition from Oracle to DB2 DBA, I would appreciate if they can share their experience on following topics:
- what resources they found most valuable;

The usual - manuals, redbooks, regular books

- is there any DB2 list similar to Oracle-l;

Yes, the is, it's called - surprise - db2-L

- what experience as Oracle DBA is completely unapplicable as DB2 DBA.

I'd venture RAC. Also probably the v$ and x$ views and tables.
