This topic describes how to create DB2 databases for scheduler, using
data definition language (DDL) or structured query language (SQL) files.Why and when to perform this task
To create a DB2 database for an application scheduler, follow these
steps.Steps for this task
- Open a DB2 command-line window.
- Make sure that you have administrator rights for the database system.
- Verify that the database supports Unicode (UTF-8). Otherwise, it
cannot store all the characters that can be handled in Java code, which might
result in code page conversion problems, when a client uses an incompatible
code page. To avoid deadlocks, be sure that the DB2 isolation level
is set to "read stability". If necessary, enter the command
db2set DB2_RR_TO_RS=YES
then restart the DB2 instance to activate the change.
- In the DB2 command line processor, enter this command to create
the database with an example name, scheddb:
db2 CREATE DATABASE scheddb USING CODESET UTF-8 TERRITORY en-us
A
DB2 database named scheddb has been created.
Result
The DB2 database for the scheduler exists.
