Command Parameters

IN registry
Indicates where on the network server to register the DB2 server. In this release, the only supported value is NWBINDERY (NetWare bindery).
USER username
User ID to log into the network server. The user ID must have SUPERVISOR or Workgroup Manager security equivalence.

Usage Notes

This command must be issued locally from a DB2 server. It is not supported remotely.

This command is only relevant when using file server addressing to connect a client and server.

Install DB2 and configure the database manager IPX/SPX parameters for each server instance. Then issue the REGISTER command at each DB2 server instance once, before invoking START DATABASE MANAGER for the first time at each DB2 server instance. After that, if the IPX/SPX fields are reconfigured, or the server network address changes, deregister the DB2 server on the network server before making the changes, and then register it again after the changes have been made.
