    DB2 Sample Database - Modifying Storage Path - Db2talk

    Uploaded by

    prakash_6849
    The document discusses modifying the storage path for a DB2 sample database. It describes a two-step process: 1) using db2sampl to create the sample database with a default storage path, then 2) using db2look to extract the DDL and modify the storage path clause, drop the original database, and recreate it with the modified DDL to set a custom storage path. An example is provided that changes the storage path and demonstrates that new tablespaces are then stored in the custom location.
