Hi!

I'm trying to set up a database instance on a prime Linux server,
using db2 V9.5 with fixpack 1 applied.
I issued db2set DB2RSHCMD=/usr/bin/ssh
After adding 2 partitions, when issuing db2stop (as instance owner),
I have to give the password 6 times.
When i the run db2start it suffices with 3 times.

What did I miss?
How do I get out of it?

You need to set up ssh for passwordless login. (i.e. add the
instance owner's public key to its authorized_keys file). Google
"ssh passwordless login"

The following developerWorks article should help:

Thanks Liam.
Going thru the process it came back to me that I did the some thing a year ago on another server.
Compliments to you for a comprehensive and pedagogic article.
