IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3

Activating the DB2 listeners on a UNIX DB2 server

The TCP/IP listener processes on the DB2® for Linux, UNIX and Windows server where the Tivoli® Data Warehouse database is installed must be active in order to accept connections from a DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows client or a JDBC Type 4 driver (DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows JDBC Universal Driver).

On a Windows system, the DB2 listeners are automatically activated. Run the following commands on a UNIX system where the Tivoli Data Warehouse database is installed to activate the DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows listeners:

db2set -i instance_name DB2COMM=tcpip
db2 update dbm cfg using SVCENAME port_number
db2stop
db2start

where instance_name is the name of the instance in which you created the warehouse database and port_number is the listening port for the instance. (The port number is specified in the file /etc/services.) For example:

db2set -i db2inst1 DB2COMM=tcpip
db2 update dbm cfg using SVCENAME 60000
db2stop
db2start
