cannot recreate DB after dropping it !!!
I am in kind of a bind. Every week I restore our production Database into a different database on a different Server for viewing by the users. Both Server are Windows boxes running V9.5
Usually a just do a redirected restore but the datbase is growing by eaps and bounds so this week I decided to drop the target database and then recreate it fresh, set the tablespace and then restore.
I dropped the target database and now I cannot recreate it in that instance. when i try and recreate it I get this error:
SQL1005N The database alias "dutdm" already exists in either the
local database directory or system database directory.
I have tried catloging and uncataloging the target database in the instance.. whatever I try it just says the database does not exist. Can anyone help?????

Sometimes there is a disconnect between the (un)cataloging and what's actually being done on the server. To solve this, I usually confirm that the database is truly uncataloged (db2 list db directory), and then (as the instance user), go into the instance directory and delete the corresponding NODE#### directory.
If you only have one db on the server, the directory is (usually) NODE0000.
