DB2 10.5 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows

dasdrop - Remove a DB2 administration server command

On Linux and UNIX operating systems only, removes the DB2® Administration Server (DAS).

Important: This command has been deprecated and might be removed in a future release because the DB2 administration server (DAS) has been deprecated in Version 9.7. For more information, see DB2 administration server (DAS) has been deprecated.

The DB2 Administration Server provides support services for remote administration and DB2 administration tools such as the Replication Center. On Windows operating systems, you can use the db2admin drop command for the same purpose.

Note: 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 .
