Remove databases with the database wizard in silent mode.
Before you begin
Ensure that the wizard has created the response.properties file in the user_settings/lcWizard/response/dbWizard directory. For more information, see the The database wizard
response file topic.
Note: To
create a response file, run the wizard in standard mode and specify
that you would like to create a response file. You can modify the
existing response file or create your own, using a text editor.
About this task
To remove databases in silent mode, complete the following
steps:
Procedure
-
(DB2® on Windows™
OS.) You must perform DB2 administration tasks with full
administrator privileges.
-
Logged in as the instance owner, open a command prompt and change to the DB2 bin directory. For example: C:\Program
Files\IBM\SQLLIB\BIN.
-
Enter the following command: db2cwadmin.bat. This command opens the DB2 command line processor while also setting your DB2 privileges.
- From the command prompt, change to the directory where
the wizard is located.
- Launch the wizard by running the following command:
- AIX®: ./dbWizard.sh -silent response_file
- Linux®: ./dbWizard.sh
-silent response_file
- Microsoft® Windows: dbWizard.bat
-silent response_file
where
response_file is the file path to
the response file.
Note: If the path to the response_file contains
a space, this parameter must be enclosed in double quotation marks
(").
What to do next
After the wizard has finished, check the log file in the Lotus_Connections_set-up_directory/Wizards/DBWizard directory for messages. The log file name uses the time as a postfix.
For example: dbConfig_20101228_202501.log.
