Re: administrator password

 

  

Hi,

I have only experience using DB2 on Linux platform, but I think it should be similar on Windows.
On linux, there are 3 ids required for DB2: A fenced userid, who runs the fenced udf/sps; A das id, runs the db2 admin serverl and A instance owner userid, who control the whole instance.
As I know, for windows, no "fenced user id".
In DB2, every user id binds to a OS user. That means there should be an existing OS user, then you just grant some priviledges to the user. The password is the password in OS for the user.
So for linux/unix, ask the root user to reset the password, for windows, maybe you should find your local admin user or the domain admin user.
Can this give you any help? :-)
