Add an HADR database resource to the cluster domain

You can add a database resource to an HADR Db2 instance running on a Pacemaker-managed Linux cluster by using the Db2 Cluster Manager (db2cm) utility.

Before you begin

The following prerequisites must be met before proceeding with the rest of the procedure:

The target database must exist in the current instance.
The HADR_PEER_WINDOW value must be set.

About this task

The following placeholders are used in the command statements throughout this procedure:

<database_name> is the name of the Db2 database on the HADR database resource.
<instance_name> is the name of the Db2® instance on the cluster

Procedure

As the root user, create the database resource for your Db2 instance:

./sqllib/bin/db2cm -create -db <database_name> -instance <instance_name>

As the root user, verify that the resource is created successfully:
```
./sqllib/bin/crm status
```

Examples

The following example shows the command syntax and output from adding a database resource called SAMPLE to the Db2 instance, db2inst1 (see step 1):

[root@ignited1 ~]# sqllib/bin/db2cm -create -db SAMPLE -instance db2inst1
Database resource for SAMPLE created successfully

The following example shows the command syntax and output from verifying that the database resource is added to the cluster domain (see step 2):
