Modifies specified entries in the DB2® Administration Server (DAS) configuration
file. The DAS is a special administrative tool that enables remote
administration of DB2 servers.
Important: The DB2 Administration Server (DAS)
has been deprecated in Version 9.7 and might be removed in a future
release. The DAS is not supported in
DB2 pureScale® environments.
Use software programs that use the Secure Shell protocol for remote
administration. For more information, see
DB2 administration server (DAS) has been deprecated .
When you install the DAS, a blank copy
of the configuration file is stored on each physical database partition.
You must create entries in each copy. You can specify the following
DAS configuration parameters to be used the next time you start the
DAS:
- Name of the DB2 Server System
- db2system
- DAS Administration Authority Group Name - dasadm_group
- Scheduler Mode - sched_enable
- Tools Catalog Database Instance - toolscat_inst
- Tools Catalog Database - toolscat_db
- Tools Catalog Database Schema - toolscat_schema
- Execute Expired Tasks - exec_exp_task
- Scheduler User ID - sched_userid
- Authentication Type DAS - authentication
The following DAS configuration parameters can be specified
originally and then later changed while the DAS is online:
- DAS Discovery Mode - discover
- SMTP Server - smtp_server
- Java™ Development Kit Installation
Path DAS - jdk_path
- Location of Contact List - contact_host
- DAS Code Page - das_codepage
- DAS Territory - das_territory
- Diagnostic error capture level - diaglevel
For more information about these parameters, see individual
parameter descriptions.
Scope

node to specify or change parameter settings for that node.
Required connection
Node. To update the
DAS configuration for a remote system, use the FOR NODE option with the administrator node name.

Command parameters
- USING config-keyword-value
- Specifies the admin configuration parameter to be updated.
- FOR NODE
- Enter the name of an administration node to update the DAS configuration
parameters there.
- USER username USING password
- If connection to the administration node requires user name and
password authorization, enter this information.
Usage notes
To view or print a list of the
DAS configuration parameters, use GET ADMIN CONFIGURATION. To reset the DAS configuration parameters to the recommended DAS
defaults, use RESET ADMIN CONFIGURATION.
When configuration parameters take effect depends on whether you
change a standard configuration parameter or one of the parameters
that can be reset online. Standard configuration parameter values
are reset when you execute the db2admin command.
If an error occurs, the DAS configuration file is not changed.
In order to update the DAS configuration using UPDATE
ADMIN CONFIGURATION, you must use the command line processor
from an instance that is at the same installed level as the DAS.
The DAS configuration file cannot be updated if the checksum is
invalid. This might occur if you change the DAS configuration file
manually, without using the appropriate command. If this happens,
you must drop and re-create the DAS to reset its configuration file.
