Inserting data items into the Sametime Advanced Server database

Insert data items into the IBM® Sametime® Advanced Server database on Linux™ or Windows™ to accommodate new configuration settings. This task does not affect existing data.

About this task

Using the existing Sametime 8.5.2x Advanced database requires that you insert items to support configuration changes for Sametime 9. This change does not affect existing data.

Note: The DB2® commands used in the following procedure work with the DB2 Control Center's command editor, which was discontinued in DB2 10.1. If you are using DB2 10.1 or later, use IBM Data Studio to insert the data in step x into the database.

Procedure

  2. Start the DB2 command window by running the following command:
    • Windows: db2cmd
    • Linux: db2
  3. Connect to the Sametime Advanced database by running the following command:
    db2 connect to STAdvanced_database_name

    where STAdvanced_database_name is the name of the Sametime Advanced database (the default name is STADV).
