The db2val command ensures that your Db2 copy is functioning
properly.
About this task
The db2val tool verifies the core function of a Db2 copy by validating
installation files, instances, database creation, connections to that database, and the state of
partitioned database environments. This validation can be helpful if you have manually deployed a
Db2 copy on Linux® and UNIX operating
systems using tar.gz files. The db2val command can quickly
ensure that all the configuration has been correctly done and ensure that the Db2 copy is what you
expect it to be. You can specify instances and databases or you can run db2val
against all of the instances. The db2val command can be found in the
DB2-install-path\bin and sqllib/bin
directories.
Example
For example, to validate all the instances for the Db2 copy, run the
following command: db2val -a
