More DB2 Vista NewBee questions

1. What is the syntax to create a node when the server is running on
the local machine?

Does one still use the word remote?

catalog tcpip node webi remote localhost server 50000

2. If I execute "db2 get dbm cfg c:/output.txt" and grep output.txt
on SVCENAME I see this:


TCP/IP Service name (SVCENAME) = db2c_DB2

To set the SVCNAME to 50000 (or any other number) and type:

db2 update db cfg using svcname 50000
QL0104N An unexpected token "svcname" was found following "USING".
Expected
okens may include: "ADSM_MGMTCLASS". SQLSTATE=42601

Why is this instruction failing?

Thanks.

First question: try it out, or search for keywords in google.

Second question: You've made a syntax error.

local machine. The local node and database are already catalogued (db2 list
node directory, db2 list database directory). For a type 4 driver, all you
need is the hostname, port, database, user, password (and default schema if
different than user).

Please take a look at C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc (/etc/services on
Linux/UNIX) to see how the label "db2c_DB2" is translated into the port
number. You can change the port number on the services file, or you set it
directly to a port number in the dbm cfg (if you can type SVCENAME
correctly). These entries are automatically created when the default
instance is created.
db2c_DB2 50000/tcp

Hi ,
svcname is part of DB Manger configuration not part of DB
Configuration.

Try this ,
db2 update DBM cfg svcname 50000

Hope this works .

configuration parameter, not DB as you pointed out. Parameter is
not svcname, it is SVCENAME. Case does not matter, but it needs to
be typed correctly.

Correct syntax would be:

db2 update dbm cfg using SVCENAME 50000

You also need to have db2comm set to tcpip. This can be checked
with command:

db2set -all

Set it with command:

db2set db2comm=tcpip

After these, instance restart is needed.
