After configuration, test your database connection in the
Configuration Assistant.
Procedure
To test a database connection:
- Start the Configuration Assistant.
- Highlight the database in the details view and select Test
Connection from the Selected menu.
The Test Connection window opens.
- Select one or more types of connection that you want to
test (CLI is the default). You can test more
than one type at the same time. Enter a valid user ID and password
for the remote database and click Test Connection. If the connection is successful, a message confirming
the connection appears on the Results page. If
the connection test failed, you will receive a help message. To change
any settings you might have incorrectly specified, select the database
in the details view and select Change Database from
the Selected menu item.
What to do next
When setting up a server to work with development environments
(such as IBM® Data Studio), you
might encounter error message SQL30081N at the initial DB2® connection. A possible root cause is that
the firewall at the remote database server has prevented the connection
from being established. In this case, verify the firewall is properly
configured to accept connection requests from the client.
