Re: [IBMiOSS] IBM i python ibm_db_dbi example usage

I don't know what my database is, and I'm not sure if I know what my

password is.

Select the 'i' icon on your Spaces home page and you will see your user and
three separate databases (schemas, libraries).

Also, my Litmis Space is authenticated via GitHub, so is my password the

same as my GitHub password? I kind of doubt it, but maybe?

Litmis Spaces operates off of passwordlessness (new word? :-) What I mean
is we definitely have passwords for IBM i profiles, but they are randomly
generated and not stored. Instead we opted to go with ssh keys for all
authentication into the machine.

If you, or anyone else, needs to know your password then please email
team@xxxxxxxxxx and we can reset it for you.

OK, but how do you determine what those three parameters are?

I know, it sounds kind of silly, but I don't know what my database is,
and I'm not sure if I know what my password is. I'm accessing this
through Litmis Spaces, which provides an SSH connection (not 5250) and
seems to only have access to PASE (not native CL commands).

If '*LOCAL' isn't an acceptable value for database, how do I find out
what my database is, using only PASE commands? Also, my Litmis Space
is authenticated via GitHub, so is my password the same as my GitHub
password? I kind of doubt it, but maybe?
