Hi Bin,

If you've performed the fully automated, single machine installation of Insight on DB2 your connections should work out of the box. If you performed any manual steps (installing on your own instance of WebSphere or manual creation of the databases either locally or remotely) you will need to follow the documentation on configuring the Rational Insight Report Server for use with DB2.

The documentation at provides details. Specifically, see step 3.
