APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • On Windows, DAS service exists after uninstalling DB2. For eg:
DB2DAS00 service. Even if we uninstall DB2 using both 'windows
control panel - Add/Remove Programs' or 'db2unins -f', DAS
service still exists on the system.

However, this problem can occur only if we have only one DB2
copy installed on the system. In case of multiple copies of DB2,
if we uninstall DB2 copy which has the DAS, the DAS service will
be removed by uninstallation properly.

Local fix

  • We need to remove DAS service explicitly from Windows services
using Windows Registry. Please be careful while editing windows
registry.
