Services associated with the server on Windows systems

When you start the server as a service, other services start automatically. These services are associated with the database manager, IBM Db2.

The following services are associated with the server.

Service name Purpose Comments
TSM Server_instance The service for the server instance that is named Server_instance.

For example: TSM Server1

Set the start and stop options for this service to start and stop the server instance automatically.

Each server instance runs as a separate service.

DB2 - DB2TSM1 - SERVER_INSTANCE The Db2 service for the server instance that is named Server_instance.

For example: DB2 - DB2TSM1 - SERVER1

This service is automatically started when the service for the server instance is started. The Db2 service is not stopped automatically when you stop the service for the server.

The system has one of these services for each server-instance service that is started on the system.
