B A\C: RDS only Supports Aurora, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, Oracle & MS SQL Server. D: SMS cannot migrate from a z/OS, it can only migrate from VMware or HyperV. It basically replaces VM Import. https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/database/aws-database-migration-service-and-aws-schema-conversion-tool-now-support-ibm-db2-as-a-source/ https://aws.amazon.com/quickstart/architecture/ibm-mq/
