I've followed this simple guide and I was able to install DB2 on Docker.
I now would like to import a sample database to play with.
So I open IBM Data Studio, I right click on the instance > New database... , I fill up with my user name and password but then an error appears:
> The system cannot verify the instance that you specified. Either enter
> a valid instance name or click on the button next to the Instance name
> field and select one from the list.
> com.ibm.datatools.adm.explorer.ui.model.InstanceException: An internal
> error occurred during: "Verifying instance db2inst1 in system
> 192.168.1.44.".
If I expand the error for more details I see:
> 'Verifying instance db2inst1 in system 192.168.1.44.' has encountered
> a problem.
>
> An internal error occurred during: "Verifying instance db2inst1 in
> system 192.168.1.44.".
>
> An internal error occurred during: "Verifying instance db2inst1 in
> system 192.168.1.44.".
>

A dive in the official documentation brings me to this solution but I don't think that could be the problem.
What intrigues me is the 'dot' (
Or is there any other way to import a sample database from IBM Data Studio?

) after the IP address. Could this be the error?

How can I add a user and specify a password for a in IBM Data Studio?
In Data Studio I can connect to a sever/database, go down to Users And Groups, right-click on Users and add a new one. But the program never asks me for a password. How can I specify it?

Also, no matter how many times I tried to "Save changes" they are never saved. I even tried to "generate change" and run it, but it always fails.
I am connecting as the only user that exists on the server: db2admin. If db2admin has no authority to manage users, then who has?

I'm using the latest version of IBM Data Studio 4.1.2.0
I tried to reorg a table using IBM Data Studio after some alterations on the table with this command.
reorg table MYTABLE;
This command shows an error
>REFRESH was expected instead of reorg
But even after using the
REFRESH
command, the table doesn't come out of the "reorg pending" state.
The same command when I tried it via the DB2 Command Line Processor worked perfectly fine.
Any suggestions on how to to enable the REORG
command in Data Studio or is it not supported at all?

Confusion in Informix when selecting dates with JOIN
I am trying to run a query in `Informix`, doing a join in a table of logs where we save the record of insertion of the rows.

I am trying to run a query in
Informix
, doing a join in a table of logs where we save the record of insertion of the rows.
Notice that the query below brings two results, with different insertion dates:
select * from log_cipessoa where cgccpf = 1541247000188
Results:
cgccpf tppessoa tp_dml dt_insercao
------------- -------- ------ ---------------------
1541247000188 1 INSERT 2018-03-06 15:05:42.0
1541247000188 2 INSERT 2018-03-27 09:54:45.0
Now, I want to bring the rows that were inserted after the 2018-03-21
day, but while doing the join, informix seems to merge the dt_insercao
column with the most recent date.
And according to the log above, Informix should only return the second line, where the column tppessoa
with the value 2 and dt_insercao
2018-03-27 09:54:45.0
SELECT pe.cgccpf
,pe.tppessoa
,REPLACE(LTRIM(RTRIM(pe.nomepessoa)), ' ', ' ') AS nomepessoa
,lg.dt_insercao
FROM CIPESSOA pe
INNER JOIN LOG_CIPESSOA lg
ON lg.cgccpf = pe.cgccpf
WHERE lg.tp_dml = 'INSERT'
AND lg.dt_insercao > '2018-03-21 20:09:32' AND lg.dt_insercao <= '2018-03-31 20:00:00'
and pe.cgccpf = 1541247000188 --FILTER ONLY FOR DEMONSTRATION
Results:
cgccpf tppessoa nomepessoa dt_insercao
------------- -------- ----------- ---------------------
1541247000188 1 XPTO LTDA 2018-03-27 09:54:45.0
1541247000188 2 XPTO LTDA 2018-03-27 09:54:45.0

I'm currently trying to log into a remote AS/400 server. I was given credentials to obtain some data and do a couple tests. After 2 failed attempts, the iAccess Client showed me an alert saying my user would be blocked if the third attempt failed, so I stopped trying.
I'm reporting the event, but I need to know if the "attempt counter" resets after some time.

IBM data studio 4 - how to open a new sql script editor?

I have to use IBM Data studio 4 and for the life of me I cannot figure how to open another SQL script editor window. Luckily it opens with one, but then I am constrained to that single window.
I don't want to go thru the trouble of having a project etc, just open another script and write a few statements.
PS: I know of a workaround of right-clicking an object in the connection tree and using Data/New Select Script, but that is a PITA as I have to open Table/View trees and point at one of the objects, and of course I am not always there (on the SP/Functions tree for instance) and it takes a while for the tree to open all objects.

I have a DB2 storage group with storage paths set like
C:\
D:\
E:\
Size of my C: drive is 100 GB and the other programs keep crashing because it fill data drive by one, even I can allocate more storage and extend this it first fill free space
In my c:\ drive and move to new storage, I like to know is it possible to give a max size for 1 particular drive(storage path) and how?
NOTE : If I can change the PathState to 'NotInUse' will it fix this , will it effect the editing of the existing data in that path ?
