Manual configuration of the DB2 server

We can manually configure the DB2 server. The DB2 settings described in this information are initial settings that might require runtime adjustment.

Configure the DB2 server requires the following steps.

1. Ensuring that TCP/IP communication is specified.

See the IBM Security Identity Manager Performance Tuning Guide technical supplement.

• Create a user on Windows and UNIX systems
  Use this procedure to create an operating system user named itimuser on the computer on which the DB2 server is installed.
• Create a user on a Linux system
  We can use the console command interface or the GUI utility to create a user named itimuser on the computer on which the DB2 server is installed.
• Create ISIM database
  We can specify any name for ISIM database, such as itimdb.
• Ensuring that TCP/IP communication is specified
  Installing DB2 specifies TCP/IP communication by default. However, you need to confirm that TCP/IP communication is specified on the DB2 server and on the DB2 client.
