(apologies for the heresy, everyone. My mail server seems to have a problem with Jonathan's address)

Jonathan,

You can use the services control panel to start and stop the database instance(s), and the administration instance. The default database instance is usually called "DB2 - DB2" under version 7.x, and a similar name under v8.x. The admin instance is usually called "DB2 - DB2DAS00" (under v8.x it has a slightly different name that escapes me right now).

You can also use the start and stop scripts from the DB2 command environment. db2start and db2stop for the database instance that matches your current environment settings (DB2INSTANCE env var, similar to your SID env var for Oracle), and db2admin start / db2admin stop for the admin instance.

You may also have the java applet server, licencing server, governor, and warehouse servers running (depending on what version you installed). Let me know if you need help with these.

Ciao
Fuzzy
:-)
