Connecting to your Db2 DB instance - Amazon Relational Database Service
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Connecting to your Db2 DB instance

After Amazon RDS provisions your Amazon RDS for Db2 DB instance, you can use any standard SQL client application to connect to the DB instance. Because Amazon RDS is a managed service, you can't sign in as SYSADM, SYSCTRL, SECADM, or SYSMAINT.

You can connect to a DB instance that is running the IBM Db2 database engine by using IBM Db2 CLP, IBM CLPPlus, DBeaver, or IBM Db2 Data Management Console.

Note

Connecting to a Db2 database can fail if your RDS for Db2 DB instance doesn't have sufficient memory. For more information, see Database connection error.
