Hi All

Is it required that the Db2 DAS [db2dasstm.exe ] should be up & running
in the production DB2 instances?

In our production server, this procesess occupies more cpu resource. So
thought of shutting down this process.

Can I know what will be the impact, if I shutdown this DB2 DAS process?
Pl advice

Regards

The DAS does a couple things. First, it is what allows the DB2 Control
Center to communicate with the box. Especially if you're running the DB2
Control Center from another box. e.g., db2cc on your Windows or Linux box,
trying to administer an AIX box.

Second, it also runs the scheduler. If you have tasks scheduled via DB2,
the DAS is what kicks those off.

Third - maybe other stuff as well.

But, if you've got very basic usage of DB2, then it's probably safe to shut
down.

Besides - if you think the DAS is taking up too much CPU time, perhaps you
should ask IBM what it's doing. That may tell you that it's doing
something useful for you. Or they may say it's a bug Wink

It is safe to stop the DAS. As already mentioned, certain DB2 administrative
GUI tasks will not work without it running. I would also disable the Health
Monitor in the DBM CFG.

To shut it down, issue the "db2admin stop" command using the DAS admin user
id. The default is dasusr1 if you did not change during installation.
