Can a Datastage PX job running on "server A" (UNIX/DB2) WRITE to database tables on the remote "server B" (UNIX/DB2).

you'll need to setup a connection to that database (ODBC, etc).

So, do I need to setup two ODBC connections if I need to read from a remote server A, do some manipulation within the DataStage PX job, and write to a different remote database server B ?

you wil have to set up a Db connection to every remote database you want to read from or write to. This is asuming that database links are not used.
