DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC67080 Status: Closed

DB2SET FAILS WITH ERROR: DBI1306N THE INSTANCE PROFILE IS NOT DEFINED.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
db2set throws the following error: 
 
$ db2set db2_workload=sap 
DBI1306N  The instance profile is not defined. 
Explanation: 
The instance is not defined in the target machine registry. 
User response: 
Specify an existing instance name or create the required 
instance. 
 
 
This problem can be caused by a dirty record in the DB2 global 
registry. 
You can list the content of the DB2 global registry with this 
command: "<DB2DIR>/bin/db2greg -dump" 
If, for example, your instance is called "db2inst1" the output 
will contain a record like this: 
I,DB2,9.7.0.1,db2inst1,/home/db2inst1/sqllib,,1,0,/opt/IBM/v97,, 
 
The error from db2set is triggered because the InstallPath 
record (/opt/IBM/v97) is different than the path where your copy 
of DB2 is installed.
