I've followed this simple guide and I was able to install DB2 on Docker.
I now would like to import a sample database to play with.
So I open IBM Data Studio, I right click on the instance > New database... , I fill up with my user name and password but then an error appears:
The system cannot verify the instance that you specified. Either enter a valid instance name or click on the button next to the Instance name field and select one from the list. com.ibm.datatools.adm.explorer.ui.model.InstanceException: An internal error occurred during: "Verifying instance db2inst1 in system 192.168.1.44.".
If I expand the error for more details I see:
'Verifying instance db2inst1 in system 192.168.1.44.' has encountered a problem.
An internal error occurred during: "Verifying instance db2inst1 in system 192.168.1.44.".
An internal error occurred during: "Verifying instance db2inst1 in system 192.168.1.44.".
com.ibm.db2.das.core.DasMessageIdentifier (initialization failure)
A dive in the official documentation brings me to this solution but I don't think that could be the problem.
What intrigues me is the 'dot' (.
) after the IP address. Could this be the error?
Or is there any other way to import a sample database from IBM Data Studio?
