ranj@tcs,
Your question really is quite broad. Connection from a UNIX system to DB2 UDB is like any other client/server - You need:
1. The DB2 Connect client installed on your UNIX host
2. Appropriate security auths and a valid user/pass defined in UDB
3. To define the host and database directory connection information for the client
It is all well documented in
IBM's DB2 Connect manual.
Cheers,
Keith

pg_tapgen
PG_TAPGEN(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation PG_TAPGEN(1p)
Name
pg_tapgen - Generate schema TAP tests from an existing database
Usage
pg_tapgen -d template1 > schema_test.sql
Description
"pg_tapgen" is a command-line utility to generate pgTAP tests to validate a database schema by reading an existing database and generating
the tests to match. Its use requires the installation of the DBI and DBD::Pg from CPAN or via a package distribution.
Warning: These prerequisites are not validated by the pgTAP "Makefile", so you'll need to install them yourself. As a result, inclusion of
this script in the pgTAP distribution is experimental. It may be moved to its own distribution in the future.
Options
-d --dbname DBNAME Database to which to connect.
-U --username USERNAME Username with which to connect.
-h --host HOST Host to which to connect.
-p --port PORT Port to which to connect.
-v --verbose Display output of test scripts while running them.
-N --exclude-schema Exclude a schema from the generated tests.
-H --help Print a usage statement and exit.
-m --man Print the complete documentation and exit.
-V --version Print the version number and exit.
Options Details
"-d"
"--dbname"
pg_tapgen --dbname try
pg_tapgen -d postgres
The name of database to which to connect. Defaults to the value of the $PGDATABASE environment variable or to the system username.
"-U"
"--username"
pg_tapgen --username foo
pg_tapgen -U postgres
PostgreSQL user name to connect as. Defaults to the value of the $PGUSER environment variable or to the operating system name of the
user running the application.
"-h"
"--host"
pg_tapgen --host pg.example.com
pg_tapgen -h dev.local
Specifies the host name of the machine on which the server is running. If the value begins with a slash, it is used as the directory
for the Unix-domain socket. Defaults to the value of the $PGHOST environment variable or localhost.
"-p"
"--port"
pg_tapgen --port 1234
pg_tapgen -p 666
Specifies the TCP port or the local Unix-domain socket file extension on which the server is listening for connections. Defaults to the
value of the $PGPORT environment variable or, if not set, to the port specified at compile time, usually 5432.
"-v"
"--verbose"
pg_tapgen --verbose
pg_tapgen -v
Display standard output of test scripts while running them. This behavior can also be triggered by setting the $TEST_VERBOSE
environment variable to a true value.
"-N"
"--exclude-schema"
pg_tapgen --exclude-schema contrib
pg_tapgen -N testing -N temporary
Exclude a schema from the test generation. "pg_tapgen" always ignores "information_schema", as it is also ignored by pgTAP. But if
there are other schemas in the database that you don't need or want to test for in the database (because you run the tests on another
database without those schemas, for example), use "--exclude-schema" to omit them. May be used more than once to exclude more than one
schema.
"-H"
"--help"
pg_tapgen --help
pg_tapgen -H
Outputs a brief description of the options supported by "pg_tapgen" and exits.
"-m"
"--man"
pg_tapgen --man
pg_tapgen -m
Outputs this documentation and exits.
"-V"
"--version"
pg_tapgen --version
pg_tapgen -V
Outputs the program name and version and exits.
