Viewing the connections table

When 

Catalog Manager

 is installed, a connections table is created that includes the Db2 SSID to which 

Catalog Manager

 attaches by default.

The installer or system administrator can add other SSIDs to make it easier for users to establish attachments and connections.

Note

For information about how to define or edit Db2 subsystems in the CONTAB, see Customizing BMC Products and Solutions for DB2.

    Column

    Description

    SSID

    Lists DB2 subsystems to which Catalog Manager can be attached

    S

    Indicates how Catalog Manager will access the catalog

    • D = direct access to the catalog
    • I = indirect access to the catalog by way of a copy or view
    • S = either direct or indirect access to the catalog, but Catalog Manager connects to the SSID by way of a server connection

    Plan

    Lists the main Catalog Manager plans that can be used

    Collection

    Lists the 0 collection IDs that can be used

    Nickname

    Identifies a user-defined name for an attachment or connection

    Location

    Lists the names of servers that are available for connections

    LocID

    Lists the SSIDs of servers that are available for connection

    The connections table is provided for reference only; you cannot select an attachment or connection from it. However, noting the information that is presented on the connections table can make it easier for you to establish an attachment or connection from the Primary Menu panel or the Change Access panel.
