Any help is very much appreciated..


Little background..
* I am trying to install V8.1 on a Sun box.
* Already there is a V7.2 running on this box.
* V7.2 installed under userid "db2usr1", fencedid "db2fen1", das
server "db2das1".
* I plan on installing V8.1 under userid "db2usr2", fencedid
"db2usr2", das server "db2das2".
* I know that since DAS servers use port "523", there is going to be a
conflict trying to run both.

The problem...

* The user wants to use either one of the instances db2usr1 or db2usr2
but not both at the same time. So I would be stopping and starting the
appropriate instance depending on the need. Is it possible to do the
same with the DAS servers also. If so, can you please let me know the
appropriate commands that I need to use as well as any environment
variables that need to be set before executing the commands.
* Also I am not sure where I read this.. but the moment I install the
second DAS server, it automatically overwrites the first one. Is this
true? If so, can I use the V8.1 DAS server to work with the V7.2
database instance? In this case can you please let me know of the
commands/variables that need to be appropriately set.

Thanks,
Sidd

Each of your DAS must have a different name.
Assume DAS01 is running:
db2admin stop
db2adminserver=DAS02
db2admin start
..
..
..
..db2admin stop
db2adminserver=DAS01
db2admin start
..
..
..
