Exclamation DSN configuration with database name more than 8 char
I've IBM DB2 UDB 7.2.I'm trying to configure DSN. My Database name is of 9
characters. IBM DB2 UDB 7.2 allows only 8 characters Database name in client
configuration assistance. Please let me know is there any work around to
this?

I tried it with DB2 connect but It is also not working. Is there any patch
available that can make it workin?
My operating system is Windows 2000.

Thanks in advance......

Raj

Try

UNCATALOG DATABASE <DBNAME>;
CATALOG DATABASE <DBNAME> AS <DBALIASNAME> AT NODE <INSTANCENAME>;

Hope this helps,
