Create the instance again with db2icrt and catalog the databases with
the 'catalog db <dbname> on <drive/path>'.
To find out which databases you must catalog you can use the command
'list db directory at <drive/path>'.

I dont think that would work, you need to recreate the instance using
db2icrt then attach to that isntance.Once you are attached to the
instance you need to restore your database into the new instance.
Hope that helps!

Why do you think that?

If the directory where the db is located is unchanged after dropping the
instance cataloging the database for sure will be enough to get it back.
I've done it a couple of times when I wanted to move the instances to
another directory, I'm sure it works.
