tools catalog

Hi everyone,

Can anyone answers my questions. My server is AIX and is 5.2 and the
db2 udb of V 8.1 Fixpak 9.

What exactly is the tools catalog for?
How it is uaseful in performing automatic runstats and reorgs?
Can the tools catalog be centralized for a given server (AIX/LINUX)?
How can I know if there is a tools catalog existing for a given
database or an instance?

Thanks!

The tools catalog is used by the task manager functions of the DAS. Store,
categorize, schedule, ...
Once a task is created (scripts, batch files, programs, ...) it can be
stored in the task center, in category (ies) that you create, given a
schedule at which to execute and execute other different tasks on success or
failure as well as notify a contact on execution.

The following link will help you: db2 create tools catalog command
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infoce...e/r0008881.htm
identified by doing a Google searcj on db2 tools catalog (very difficult!).
The other link will explain how the DAS may use it. You'll find it at the
bottom of the one above.

HTH, Pierre.

Thanks Pierre for your reply.

I have created a tools catalog database for server1 and want to use the
same tools catalog database for the server2.
I have cataloged the database on the server2 and when I tried to create
a tools catalog with the existing database ie

db2 create tools catalog use existing database toolsdb force

it gives me an error

SQL30082N Attempt to establish connection failed with security reason
"3"
("PASSWORD MISSING"). SQLSTATE=08001

The database which is on the server1 is a remote database for the
server2 and I know I have to give the password but there is no option
of mentioning the password in the create tools catalog command.

Is there any way, please give me your advise.

Thanks.

Hi, I have two db2 Version8.1 instances running on IBM AIX 5.2 platform. Db2inst1 is migrated from V7.2 and db2inst2 is the instance to be created while install db2 Version8.1.

I had stopped all database services before running the setup program for upgrading from 7.2 to 8.1. During the installation process though, I got a message to the effect saying the tools server could not be installed because no start database command was issued. Does anyone know how I can now install the tools server separately? Should I simply re-install the DB2 8.1 and hope that this would install the missing tools? Or can I re-install...

Running db2 8.1.1 on AIX 5.1 Recently created a Tools catalog and db on a test database server.

Does anyone know how to correctly setup the Administration DB for fail over clustering on a MSCS server running DB2. Problem I have when I follow IBM's docs is that I install the Tools catalog on the first node but when I failover the cluster to the second node - DB2's Task Center no longer works since the Tools Catalog still points to the first node. Is there anyway to re-catalog the tools db so

Hi folks, I installed DB2 V9.1 FP2 on RHEL AS V4 (DB2 Server) and Win XP SP2 (DB2 Client). The strange thing, there were two database aliases TOOLS0 & TOOLS1 in the DB2 Client that were mapping to the same remote tools catalog database TOOLSDB in the DB2 Server after I created a new tools catalog database by Control Center.
