IBM GC09-2830-00 - Manual (Page 118)

When you add a database using this configuration method, the
Client Configuration Assistant will generate a default node name for
the server where the database resides.
Configuration Steps
To configure your workstation to access a database on a remote server,
perform the following steps:
Step 1. Log on to the system with a valid DB2 user ID. For more
information, see “Appendix F. Naming Rules” on page 165.
If you are adding a database to a system that has a DB2 Connect
server product installed, log on to this system as a user with System
Administrative (SYSADM) or System Controller (SYSCTRL) authority
on the instance. For more information, see “Working with the System
Administrative Group” on page 138.
This restriction is controlled by the catalog_noauth database manager
configuration parameter. For more information, refer to the
Administration Guide.
Step 2. Start the CCA. For more information, see “Starting the Client
Configuration Assistant” on page 133.
The Welcome window opens each time you start the CCA, until you
add at least one database to your client.
Step 3. Click on the Add Database or Add push button to configure a
connection.
Go to the section that describes the configuration method that you want
to use:
v “Adding a Database Using a Profile”.
v “Adding a Database Using Discovery” on page 108.
v “Adding a Database Manually” on page 110.
Adding a Database Using a Profile
A profile contains information about instances and databases on a system, and
databases within each instance. For information on profiles, see “Creating and
Using Profiles” on page 112.
If your administrator provided you with a profile, perform the following
steps:
Step 1. Select the Use an access profile radio button and click on the Next
push button.
