Testing the Db2 connection

After you add a Db2® application server, you can test the connection. The test verifies communication with the server and the DNS settings between IBM Storage® Protect Plus and the Db2 server. It also checks for the correct sudo permissions for the user.

Procedure

  1. In the navigation panel, click Manage Protection > Databases > Db2.
  2. In the Db2 window, click Manage Application Servers, and select the Host Address you want to test.

    A list of the Db2 application servers that are available are shown.

  3. Click Actions and choose Test to start the verification tests for physical, remote and operating system connections and settings.
  4. Click OK to close the test, and choose to rerun the test after you fix any failed tests.
