Quest Central: Duplicate database name?

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone here could help with a Quest Central issue.

I have two different hosts listed in Quest Central. Each host has a
database on it, but the databases have the *same* name. I can add the
database to the first host OK. But when I try to add the second
host's database, I get an error saying "Database name already exists."

Is there a way around this problem? Why does it matter if databases
across different hosts have the same name?

Thanks.

Because there's only one database directory. You need to specify an
alias when cataloging them if you want to use both databases.

Apparently due to an intellectual property suit by CA, Quest Central for DB2 has gone away. They can/will not sell any license extensions. In a project I am doing, we make extensive use of quest due to its ease of use and speed. If you know of a product with similar capabilities, please let me know. My license is running out this month. Inexpensive is very important since we're a dining room table startup.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
