have the discover_inst database manager configuration parameter and
databases with the discover_db database configuration parameter set to
ENABLE. The discover parameter in the Administration Server’s configuration
file must be set to either SEARCH or KNOWN to generate a profile for a
server system.
The default settings for these configuration parameters enable you to discover
all instances and databases on your network. For information on setting the
discover_inst, discover_db, and discover configuration parameters, refer to the
Administration Guide.
We recommend that you create a Server Profile only after you have
created the DB2 databases that you want your remote clients to
access.
To create a Server Profile, perform the following steps:
Step 1. Start the Control Center. For more information, refer to “Starting the
Control Center” on page 134.
Step 2. Select the system that you want to create a profile for and click on
the right mouse button.
If the system that you want to create a profile for is not shown,
select the Systems icon, click on the right mouse button, and select
the Add option. Click on the Help push button and follow the
online help.
Step 3. Select the Export server profile option.
Step 4. Enter a path and filename for this profile and click on the Export
push button.
You are ready to use this profile on your system. For more information
on how to add a database to your system using a Server Profile, go to
“Configuration Steps” on page 106.
Client Profiles
Information in a Client Profile can be used to configure clients using the
Import function in the Client Configuration Assistant (CCA). These clients can
import all or a subset of the configuration information in a profile.
This scenario assumes that the database connections configured on
one client will be exported and used to set up one or more clients.
