[diimps1@aixudbtest1 /home/dbadvlp]$ echo $dbalias
DBIHP


[diimps1@aixudbtest1 /home/dbadvlp]$ db2 list db directory|grep -p 'Database alias = '$dbalias
Database alias = DBIHPP1
Database name = DBIHPP1
Local database directory = /db2udb/diimps1/dbihpp1/dbpath
Database release level = a.00
Comment =

Catalog database partition number = 0
