Leny,

1. Reinstalling DB2 does not cause any of your databases to get lost.
All you have to do is CATALOG DATABASE <dbname> after a re-install.
2. Have you looked into the various logs (admin, db2diag.log, ...)
3. 9/10 times when that happens to me it's the password that has changed
In case of Windows check the DB2 services passwords

Cheers
Serge
