Code:
# Establish DB connection
ret=`db2 connect to $1`
ret=`echo "$ret"`

if [[ -z $ret ]] then
        echo "Error connecting to $1 database."
        exit 1
else
        echo "Successfully connected to $1 database !"
fi

Code:
# Terminate DB connection
ret=`db2 terminate`
ret=`echo "$ret" | grep DB20000I | cut -c1-8`

if [[  $ret = "DB20000I" ]] then
        echo "The TERMINATE command completed successfully."
fi

$1 is your DB name as argument

Hope this helps you!
