Usage notes
Before running this command:
The DMBIDROP command removes the DB2 extenders instance directory, removes the instance entry from the list of instances, and removes other information about the instance.
The DMBIDROP command only removes the DB2 extenders instance; it does not remove the DB2 instance associated with it. You must explicitly drop the DB2 instance.
If you drop the DB2 instance associated with a DB2 extenders server instance, the DB2 extenders server instance is not dropped. However, you cannot use it.
(EEE Only) If you drop a DB2 extenders instance, the start and end port entries for the instance must be removed from the /etc/services file in UNIX, and from the \WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\Services file in Windows. These entries are DMB_instanceNamempp and DMB_instanceNamempp_END.
