DB2 10.5 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows

RESET ADMIN CONFIGURATION command

Resets entries in the DB2® Administration Server (DAS) configuration file on the node to which you are connected. The DAS is a special administrative tool that enables remote administration of DB2 servers.

The values are reset by node type, which is always a server with remote clients. For a list of DAS parameters, see the description of the UPDATE ADMIN CONFIGURATION command.

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 .

Scope

This command resets the DAS configuration file on the administration node of the system to which you are connected.

Authorization

Command parameters

FOR NODE node-name
Enter the name of an administrator node to reset DAS configuration parameters there.
USER username USING password
If connection to the remote system requires user name and password, enter this information.

Usage notes

To reset the DAS configuration parameters on a remote system, specify the system using the administrator node name as an argument to the FOR NODE option and specify the user name and password if the connection to that node requires username and password authorization.

To view or print a list of the DAS configuration parameters, use the GET ADMIN CONFIGURATION command. To change the value of an admin parameter, use the UPDATE ADMIN CONFIGURATION command.

Changes to the DAS configuration parameters that can be updated online take place immediately. Other changes become effective only after they are loaded into memory when you restart the DAS with the db2admin command.

If an error occurs, the DAS configuration file does not change.

The DAS configuration file cannot be reset if the checksum is invalid. This might occur if you edit the DAS configuration file manually and do not use the appropriate command. If the checksum is invalid, you must drop and re-create the DAS to reset the its configuration file.
