Prepare the remote DB2 for use with the Managing Server

The following instructions describe how to prepare the DB2 environment used by the Managing Server when DB2 is installed on a different computer to the Archive Agent (a component of the Managing Server).

Within this section, the servers are referred to as follows:

• The server on which the Visualization Engine (Application Monitor) and Archive Agent are installed is the local server.

• The server on which DB2 is installed is the remote server.

In this scenario, install the DB2 Client Application Enabler on the local server.

To prepare the remote DB2 for use with the Managing Server:

1. Install DB2 on the remote server.

   On the remote server, create a user account, for example, amuser. It must be the same user as the Managing Server installation user. See the following section: Create the installation user

2. Login as the DB2 Instance owner on the remote server.

3. Create a temporary directory on the remote server in which to place the DB2 installation scripts. Example: c:\temp

4. FTP the file db2-remote-scripts.zip to the temporary directory you created.

   The db2-remote-scripts.zip file is provided with the Managing Server distribution in MS_/path/to/install\base\scripts.

5. Extract the db2-remote-scripts.zip file.

6. Run the db2install.bat script. For example:

   cd c:\temp\db2\bin

   db2install.bat schema_user schema_password user_interface_user db2_instance_user
          db2_instance_password  DB2version databaseName

   where databaseName is optional

   The schema_user owns and can create the database tables for ITCAM for Application Diagnostics. This is the user you created in Existing database environment: creating the schema user.

   The user_interface_user is the user to be used when logging in and operating the Managing Server's Application Monitor after installation and configuration. This will also be specified during the Managing Server installation. This is the user you created in Custom installation and upgrade: creating the user interface user. If you do not specify this user, specify the db2_instance_user.

   The db2_instance_user is the owner of the DB2 instance. This was created when you installed DB2. For example, db2inst1. If you do not specify this user, specify the user_interface_user.
