🏷️ Feature Request Type

New Monitor

🔖 Feature description

It would be great to also be able to monitor other DBs such as IBM DB2:

• https://www.ibm.com/products/db2

✔️ Solution

Replicate the setup for MS SQL server, but with different connection methods and parameters to connect and test DB2 instances.

❓ Alternatives

I'm currently using a TCP Port test, but this only checks if the port is open, not whether a DB is actually available on that port and properly functioning.

📝 Additional Context

One can easily run DB2 with Docker:

• https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2/11.5?topic=system-linux
• https://hub.docker.com/r/ibmcom/db2

Its seems there's an NPM library for interfacing with DB2: https://www.npmjs.com/package/ibm_db

Hi, @CommanderStorm, could you please comment on this: https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma/pull/3439#issuecomment-1910747312 Thank you

I replied there, but for this thread: IBM currently does not support armv7/arm64. Running on said platforms is a hard requirement for us which we will not drop for this feature.

If IBM changes their mind about arm support (or there is a way to have this work on arm too), this changes ^^
