Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Connect status of db2 in Unix shell script Post 302484093 by DGPickett on Wednesday 29th of December 2010 04:37:28 PM

The first db2 creates a personal daemon process to hold onto the connection and take the series of db2 command chunks (do ps -ef after the first to see). Once you connect, you can run more db2 commands to see if it is happy, usually by using it. Try a bogus user id and see if the first DB2 tells you that you have no connection. Maybe there is a verbose mode to get it to verify it is nominally connected. I forget the details, and do not have db2 on this gig.

db2_conn_error - Returns a string containing the SQLSTATE returned by the last connection attempt

SYNOPSIS
string db2_conn_error ([resource $connection]) DESCRIPTION
db2_conn_error(3) returns an SQLSTATE value representing the reason the last attempt to connect to a database failed. As db2_connect(3) returns FALSE in the event of a failed connection attempt, you do not pass any parameters to db2_conn_error(3) to retrieve the SQLSTATE value. If, however, the connection was successful but becomes invalid over time, you can pass the $connection parameter to retrieve the SQLSTATE value for a specific connection. To learn what the SQLSTATE value means, you can issue the following command at a DB2 Command Line Processor prompt: db2 '? $sqlstate- value'. You can also call db2_conn_errormsg(3) to retrieve an explicit error message and the associated SQLCODE value. PARAMETERS
o $connection - A connection resource associated with a connection that initially succeeded, but which over time became invalid. RETURN VALUES
Returns the SQLSTATE value resulting from a failed connection attempt. Returns an empty string if there is no error associated with the last connection attempt. EXAMPLES
Example #1 Retrieving an SQLSTATE value for a failed connection attempt The following example demonstrates how to return an SQLSTATE value after deliberately passing invalid parameters to db2_connect(3). <?php $conn = db2_connect('badname', 'baduser', 'badpassword'); if (!$conn) { print "SQLSTATE value: " . db2_conn_error(); } ?> The above example will output: SQLSTATE value: 08001 SEE ALSO
