So i raised the issue with SAP .and Sap suggest me to drop and create the instance once again .When i check instance using command db2ilist i get O/p Db2 .

So i have to drop this instance and recreate it again ?

Kindly suggest me as its showing only one instance .

    Hi Ashok,

    What error you you get with the connect command and what is written to the db2diag.log?

    Dropping and recreating the instance should not take too long but have you tried performing an instance update?

    Is this a newly installed system or has it been running for some time?

    What was done prior to the connect not wokring? were any passwords changed/ hardware change/ fixpack or release update?

    Regards,

    Paul

    Hi Ashok,

    could you please be more specific. What is the return of your CLP command?

    Are you trying to connect from db server or an SAP appserver. Is your system using the CLI driver client?

    Regards
