Quick Beginnings for DB2 Connect


Using the Control Center

Before you can work with a server and its databases you will need to catalog information about the server on the Control Center workstation. The DB2 Control Center only works with servers and databases that are catalogued on the workstation where the Control Center is running. The easiest way to accomplish this on Windows 95, 98, NT and OS/2 workstations is to use the DB2 Client Configuration Assistant (CCA). For information about using the CCA, see Configuring DB2 Connect to Host or AS/400 Communications Using the CCA.

Once the Control Center is running, start by clicking on the plus sign next to the server you want to administer. Select the database or connectivity server objects that you want to administer and click the right mouse button on the object to work with object properties or to execute actions on the object. Remember to press F1 to display help as you work.
