Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

DB2 Universal Database Connection by SQL Job
This job discovers DB2 databases using the SQL protocol.

Set up credentials.
This job uses SQL credentials defined for the DB2 database.
Note Port and database name are optional for DB2 credentials and if they are not set they are considered as candidates to be used during connection.
This job iterates over available Generic DB Protocol credentials of type db2. Credential entries are considered applicable if they do not contain port or database name information. If they do contain port or database name information, they are additionally compared with the port and database name provided from the triggered CI data (port and db_name, respectively).
As a result of this job, Db2Database or Db2Alias (depending on the trigger) is modeled with the appropriate credentials_id field.
