Hi me,<br />
<br />
It's a 2 step process.<br />
<br />
Use CATALOG TCPIP NODE to define the TCPIP connection to a DB2 server (node).<br />
<br />
Then use CATALOG DATABASE to define the connection to the database alias on the TCPIP NODE <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Good Luck!<br />

I know I can catalog a DB2 Database with an Alias. &nbsp; &nbsp;Is there a way to do the same thing with a TCPIP node?<br />
<br />
We would like to test using a new DB2 connect server without breaking the existing connections.

IBM DB2 is a family of relational database server products developed by IBM that have been extended to support object-relational features and non-relational structures like JSON and XML. There are three main products in the DB2 family: DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (informally known as DB2 LUW), DB2 for z/OS (mainframe), and DB2 for i (formerly OS/400), plus a version for IBM's Virtual Storage Extended (VSE) operating system.
