Drop the Db2 database for the application on the test system

You must drop the IBM OpenPages® database on the test server. Dropping the IBM® Db2® database for IBM OpenPages on the test system deletes all object data.

The Db2 database includes OpenPages application data.

Procedure

  1. Log on to your IBM OpenPages test server as a user with administrative permissions.
  2. Stop all OpenPages, Cognos®, and global search services.
  3. Open a command or shell window.
  4. For Windows users only, type the following command in the Command Prompt window to initialize the Db2 command line processor (CLP):

    db2cmd

  5. In the Db2 CLP, type the following command to drop the Db2 test database:

    db2 drop db <DATABASE_NAME>

    Where <DATABASE_NAME> is the name of the test database.

    For example, if the name of the test database is op, type db2 drop database op.
