  2. Remove the comment indicators from the DB2 configuration, and enter the password you created for the mwiz2 user:
    • If the password is encrypted, replace XXX with the encrypted password.
    • If the password is plain text, replace {enc}XXX with the password.
    # DB2   
    driverClassName=com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver
