Database transfer: Create DB2 database | HCL Digital Experience

Manual steps from the Configuration Wizard are included in HCL Digital Experience Product Documentation for reference and for advanced users. The procedure includes variables and steps for different databases. When you use the wizard to configure your deployment, it replaces the variable with information that you provided in the wizard. It also shows only the steps that are specific to your environment. The instructions that the wizard generates are specific to your environment.

Before you begin

Ensure your DB2® server is already installed and running.

About this task

Attention: All steps for all database environments are included without consideration for your environment. Use the Configuration Wizard to generate custom instructions for your environment.

Procedure

Instructions for AIX, HP-UX, Linux, and Solaris
  1. Copy the JDBC Driver JAR files from your database server to your portal server.

    Example location:

    C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\SQLLIB\\java\\db2jcc4.jar

    C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\SQLLIB\\java\\db2jcc_license_cu.jar

    Place the files on the portal server in the directory that you specified for database library files.

    ${db2.DbLibrary}db2.DbLibrary

  2. Log in as a DB2® system administrator with the required database privileges (SYSADM or at a minimum SYSCTRL).

    su - ${release.DBA.DbUser} su - domain.DBA.DbUser

  3. Copy the script that you downloaded for this step to the database server, and extract the file.
  4. Rename the file that you downloaded to include a .sh extension.
  5. Run the shell file on your database server.

    /your_database_server_file_location/CreateDB2Database.sh

    Example of the script that the Configuration Wizard generates. 

    db2set DB2COMM=TCPIP
db2set DB2_EVALUNCOMMITTED=YES
db2set DB2_INLIST_TO_NLJN=YES
db2 "UPDATE DBM CFG USING sheapthres 0"

db2 "CONNECT TO WPSDB USER dba_ID USING dba_pwd"

db2 "CREATE BUFFERPOOL ICMLSVOLATILEBP4 SIZE 16000 AUTOMATIC PAGESIZE 4K"
db2 "CREATE BUFFERPOOL ICMLSMAINBP32 SIZE 16000 AUTOMATIC PAGESIZE 32K"

db2 "CREATE USER TEMPORARY TABLESPACE ICMLSUSRTSPACE4 PAGESIZE 4K BUFFERPOOL ICMLSVOLATILEBP4"
db2 "DISCONNECT WPSDB"
db2 "TERMINATE"
db2 "UPDATE DB CFG FOR WPSDB USING logfilsiz 16000"
db2 "UPDATE DB CFG FOR WPSDB USING logprimary 20"
db2 "UPDATE DB CFG FOR WPSDB USING logsecond 50"
db2 "UPDATE DB CFG FOR WPSDB USING logbufsz 500"
db2 "UPDATE DB CFG FOR WPSDB USING DFT_QUERYOPT 5"
Instructions for Windows
  1. Copy the JDBC Driver JAR files from your database server to your portal server.

    Example location:

    C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\SQLLIB\\java\\db2jcc4.jar

    C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\SQLLIB\\java\\db2jcc_license_cu.jar

    Place the files on the portal server in the directory that you specified for database library files.

    ${db2.DbLibrary}db2.DbLibrary

  2. Log in as a DB2® system administrator. This DB2® system administrator must have the required database privileges (SYSADM or at a minimum SYSCTRL) to create your database. This user is typically a member of both the Administrators and DB2ADMNS groups.
  3. Copy the script that you downloaded for this step to the database server, and extract the file.
  4. Rename the file that you downloaded to include a .bat extension.
  5. Run the batch file on your database server.

    db2cmdadmin.exe -w C:\\your_database_server_file_location\\CreateDB2Database.bat

    Example of the script is not available for Windows.
