Connection port for DB2 instance .???

[donny750]

Hi guys;


Is-it possible to modify the connection port for DB2 instance ?and how ?
may be directly in the /etc/services or with a db2 command ?

Thanks for your help

You're right it's in /etc/services. The normal port number is 50000. Just look for something like db2_db2inst1 or whatever you've called your instance. You'll need to stop and re-start db2 for it to take effect. You can use netstat to check it's listening on the correct port.
