db2ilist command options -a and -p have been discontinued

Details

In DB2® Version 8, you could use the db2ilist command to list all of the DB2 instances that were available on a system. The -a and -p options were deprecated in DB2 Version 9.1 because the scope of the db2ilist command changed and listed only the instances related to the current installation path.

User response

For DB2 Version 9.1 and higher releases, you can list DB2 installation path information by using the db2ls command on the server and then the db2ilist command in each of the installation directories shown in the db2ls output.

For DB2 Version 8 releases, you can list instance information by running the db2ilist command in the installation directories where the DB2 Version 8 products are installed.
