We used both and just the port 50000 and it worked fine.

Subject: [DB2EUG] svcename on NT & 2000K


We had a hardware problem with one of our servers yesterday and the network
person in the process of problem determination overlaid the SERVICES file
and wiped out our DB2 port.  So I'm trying to think of a way that this won't
happen again.
In the 
Version 7 Installation and Configuration supplement -- Configuring TCP/IP on
the Servers it states,
        You don't have to specify a service name in the svcename field, if
you have directly specified a port number. 
Does any shop specify a port number i.e. 50000 for the svcename instead of a
name and putting that name in the services file?
TIA
