Hi,

I'm connectig to a machine with the user root, i navigate the file /opt/IBM/db2 and when i type the db2start command i got this error

SQL1092N root does not have the authority to perform the requested command

can anyone help to get start with db2??

thank you for your help

never start db2 from root/system
this should be started by instance
su - db2inst1 or other instance and execute db2start for this instance
do db2ilist to find the instances

Ok thank you

i have an other question, i would like to connect to db2 using the interface and i type db2cc but i git this error
sh :/opt/IBMJava2-142/jre/bin/java: No such file or directory DB2JAVIT : RC = 127

i tried also to start teh database using db2start and it doesn't work
SQL6048N A communication error occured during START or STOP DATABASE MANAGER procesisng.
SQL1032N No start database maanger command was issued. SQLSTATE= 57019


thank you for your help

regards,

Sometimes memory on the box which you are working migh not be enough to open the control centre [db2cc]. Try to install a DB2 windows client on the box and open control centre from there. start - programs -IBM DB2 - General Administration tools - Control Centre.

which version of db2 are you under ? If you are running on V9.5, Please make sure the instance whic you are starting is present under /opt/IBM/db2/V9.5/instance/db2ilist

Please let me know whether or not you are using the instance user id to start the instance.

And also make sure to cat this file INSTANCE_PATH/sqllib/db2nodes.cfg and see if the host name is present in it.

The DB2 GUI tools do not work well under Linux (and are often not installed correctly). Run them under Windows or use command line.
