Preparing DB2 for OS/390 Servers for the Control Center
The DB2 Control Center uses stored procedures to deliver many of its
management functions. Therefore, for the control center to function properly
each DB2 for OS/390 server that will be managed from the Control Center
needs to have stored procedures enabled and the proper stored procedures
installed on that server.
Consult the DB2 for OS/390 Program Directory for additional information on
applying service and required Function Modification Identifiers.
Using the Control Center
Before you can work with a server and its databases you will need to catalog
information about the server on the Control Center workstation. The DB2
Control Center only works with servers and databases that are catalogued on
the workstation where the Control Center is running. The easiest way to
accomplish this on Windows 95, 98, NT and OS/2 workstations is to use the
DB2 Client Configuration Assistant (CCA). For information about using the
CCA, see “Chapter 6. Configuring DB2 Connect to Host or AS/400
Communications Using the CCA” on page 57.
Once the Control Center is running, start by clicking on the plus sign next to
the server you want to administer. Select the database or connectivity server
objects that you want to administer and click the right mouse button on the
object to work with object properties or to execute actions on the object.
