About this task
The
db2val tool verifies the core function
of a DB2 copy by validating
installation files, instances, database creation, connections to that
database, and the state of partitioned database environments. This
validation can be helpful if you have manually deployed a DB2 copy on Linux and UNIX operating
systems using
tar.gz files. The
db2val command
can quickly ensure that all the configuration has been correctly done
and ensure that the DB2 copy
is what you expect it to be. You can specify instances and databases
or you can run
db2val against all of the instances.
The
db2val command can be found in the
DB2-install-path\bin and
sqllib/bin directories.
Example
For example, to validate all the instances for the DB2 copy, run the following command:
db2val -a

validation tool command" topic.
