After you install the plug-in, create a Db2 profile to avoid entering your connection details each time that you issue a command. You can create multiple profiles and switch between them as needed.
-Specify your plug-in profile and connection details in the `zowe.config.json` configuration file.
+Add your plug-in profile and connection details to the `zowe.config.json` configuration file. In the profile, enter the IP address and port number of the Db2 database, as well as the eight-character database schema name.

### Creating plug-in profiles using a configuration file
+You can issue commands to create a Db2 profile, or you can manually edit your configuration file to add a profile.
+
+#### Creating a Db2 profile with a command
+
When you issue various `zowe config` commands, such as `init`, `auto-init`, and `convert-profiles`, they create a `zowe.config.json` configuration file. When you install the Db2 plug-in and then issue a command, the command creates an entry for a `db2 profile` in your `zowe.config.json` file.
-Alternatively, you can create a Db2 profile manually by adding a section that contains the configuration details to your `zowe.config.json` configuration file:

4. If an SSL file is available, set the `sslFile` value to SSL file path:
```
zowe config set profiles.db2.properties.sslFile
```
+
You can now use your profile when you issue commands in the Db2 command group.
