Checking the DB2 environment variable settings

 

Ensure that your DB2 environment variables are set for queue manager processes as well as in your application processes. In particular, always set the DB2INSTANCE environment variable before you start the queue manager. The DB2INSTANCE environment variable identifies the DB2 instance containing the DB2 databases that are being updated. For example:

• On UNIX systems, use:

  export DB2INSTANCE=db2inst1

• On Windows systems, use:

  set DB2INSTANCE=DB2
