Updating DB2 password

You can update the DB2® password using the Web Administration Tool.

About this task

If you have not done so already, click Server administration in the Web Administration navigation area and then click DB2 Instance Owner in the expanded list. This panel displays the DB2 instance name and the DB2 instance owner name. On this panel, do the following steps to change the DB2 administrator's password:
  1. Type the new password in the New password field.
  2. Retype the password in the Confirm password field.
  3. Click Change password to save your changes, or click Cancel to return to the "Introduction" panel without making any changes.
Note: This panel is displayed only to Primary Administrator or Server configuration group members. It is better to use SSL when using the Web admin tool to update the DB2 password.
