[Madhu]

All,

New to DB2 environment. Can someone share a script that can be used to
a create a DB2 UDB database manually. I am trying to create a database
on Linux, single partition.

If all you want is a sample database, the first steps create one for you or
go to a command line and do:
db2sampl <path>
A look at the db2 Command Reference on line helps or the following.

D:\SQLLIB\BIN>db2 ? create db
CREATE DATABASE database-name
[AT DBPARTITIONNUM | [AUTOMATIC STORAGE {NO | YES}]
[ON drive[{,drive}...][DBPATH ON drive]]
[ALIAS database-alias] [USING CODESET codeset TERRITORY territory]
[COLLATE USING {SYSTEM | IDENTITY | IDENTITY_16BIT | COMPATIBILITY |
NLSCHAR}]
[PAGESIZE integer [K]]
[NUMSEGS numsegs] [DFT_EXTENT_SZ dft_extentsize]
[CATALOG TABLESPACE tblspace-defn] [USER TABLESPACE tblspace-defn]
[TEMPORARY TABLESPACE tblspace-defn] [WITH "comment-string"]]
[AUTOCONFIGURE [USING config-keyword value [{,config-keyword value}...]]
[APPLY {DB ONLY | DB AND DBM | NONE}]]

tblspace-defn:
MANAGED BY { SYSTEM USING ('string' [ {,'string'} ... ] ) |
DATABASE USING ({FILE | DEVICE} 'string' number-of-pages
[ {,{FILE | DEVICE} 'string' number-of-pages} ... ]) | AUTOMATIC STORAGE}
[EXTENTSIZE number-of-pages] [PREFETCHSIZE number-of-pages]
[OVERHEAD number-of-milliseconds] [TRANSFERRATE number-of-milliseconds]
[NO FILE SYSTEM CACHING | FILE SYSTEM CACHING]
[AUTORESIZE {NO | YES}] [INITIALSIZE integer {K |M |G}]
[INCREASESIZE integer {PERCENT |K |M |G}] [MAXSIZE {NONE | integer {K |M
|G}}]

config-keyword:
MEM_PERCENT, WORKLOAD_TYPE, NUM_STMTS, TPM, ADMIN_PRIORITY
NUM_LOCAL_APPS, NUM_REMOTE_APPS, ISOLATION, BP_RESIZEABLE.

Once the db is created, a look at the SQL Refer. handbook will help in
defining yyour table spaces, tables an so on.

HTH, Pierre.

Thanks for the reply !!

I am looking to create a database (single-partition/single server) with
multiple tablespaces, whose containers are distributed in multiple file
systems/directories.

In my case its just directories, since i only have one single disk
where i am creating the database.

Thanks

You can specify the location of containers for the catalog, system temporary
tablespace, and default userspace in the create database statement.

To create any additional tablespaces, you need the create tablespace
command.

See the Command Reference manual for additional details. You can download
the PDF version for free.
