DB2MSCS with 1 physical and three logikal disks

[Klemens]

How can I run db2mscs to set instance profile on a special logical disk of
three defined on a physikal disk.
I tried this:
######################
DISK_NAME=Datenträger Q: F: Z:
INSTPROF_DISK=Z:
######################
But after running I found the Profile on Q:
"Datenträger Q: F: Z:" ist the name of the phsical disk

Thanks

I'll assume you've mistyped the error message ("Datenträger Q: F: Z:" ist
the name of the phsical disk", and it should be "Datenträger Q: F: Z:" ISNT
the name of the phsical disk"), otherwise "ist" = IS in English isn't an
error but an oxymoron statement of fact. Under these assumption, review note
1 below (explains the error message) and the example (shows the correct
syntax for multiple disks).

From the Admin Guide:

DISK_NAME
The name of the physical disk resources to be moved to the current groups.
Specify as many disk resources as you need.
Notes:


1.. The disk resources must already exist.

2.. When the DB2MSCS utility configures the DB2 instance for MSCS support,
the instance directory is copied to the first MSCS disk in the group. To
specify a different MSCS disk for the instance directory, use the
INSTPROF_DISK parameter.

Example:

DISK_NAME=Disk E:
DISK_NAME=Disk F:



BTW, you may find it simpler to stick to a single drive letter, and use
Windows 2000 dynamic disks to span multiple physical drives into a single
logical drive letter. That way, you don't run out of drive letters.
