Creating multiple DB2 database instances

Create multiple DB2 database instances using the DB2® Command Line Processor. If you need to have only one database instance, you can skip this task.

When you create multiple database instances, you must install the databases on each instance. If you use the database wizard to install the databases, prepare and run the database wizard once for each instance. If you use the scripts to install the databases, run the scripts once for each instance.
