Command parameters
- -i instance_name
- Specifies the name of the database manager instance whose database
directory, node directory, and Database Connection Services (DCS)
directory are used as input.
You cannot use this parameter with
the -p or -migrateCliIniFor.NET parameter.
- -p instance_path
- Specifies the full path of the database manager instance directory
under which the system database directory, node directory, and DCS
directory are located.
You cannot use this parameter with the -i or -migrateCliIniFor.NET parameter.
- -migrateCliIniFor.NET
Copies certain entries from the
db2cli.ini file
into the
db2dsdriver.cfg file. This parameter
is for Microsoft Windows systems only. Only the
following keywords are migrated:
- Txnisolation
- Connecttimeout
- Currentschema
The keywords are migrated in the following manner:
- Entries in the common section of the db2cli.ini file
are copied to the global section of the db2dsdriver.cfg file.
- Entries that have a database name, host name, and port information
are copied to the database section.
- Entries for cataloged databases are copied to the data source
name section.
You cannot use this parameter with the -i or -p parameter.
Restriction: For .NET applications and applications that use
embedded SQL, the IBM Data Server
Client and IBM Data Server Runtime
Client can use the db2dsdriver.cfg file to retrieve
only Sysplex-related settings.
- -db2cliFile db2cli.ini_path
- Specifies the full path of the db2cli.ini file.
This parameter is for Microsoft Windows systems only.
- -o output_path
- Specifies the path where the db2dsdcfgfill command
creates the db2dsdriver.cfg configuration file.
If
you do not specify a value for this parameter and you have a copy
of the db2dsdriver.cfg file from Version 9.7
Fix Pack 2 or earlier, that copy is replaced. Otherwise, if you do
not specify a value for this parameter, the db2dsdriver.cfg configuration
file is created in a directory that depends on your driver type and
operating system. For information about the location of the db2dsdriver.cfg file,
see the "db2dsdriver configuration file" topic.
- -h
- Displays usage information.
Usage notes
When you run the db2dsdcfgfill command
without the -migrateCliIniFor.NET parameter,
if a db2dsdriver.cfg configuration file already
exists in the output directory, the existing db2dsdriver.cfg configuration
file is overwritten. However, when the -migrateCliIniFor.NET option
is used with an existing db2dsdriver.cfg file,
it will merge the information into the existing file instead.
