Fix pack installation images on the FTP site are in compressed
format. Before you can install a fix pack, you must uncompress the
fix pack installation image in a temporary directory.
Before you begin
- If you have more than one DB2® database
product installed in a single DB2 copy,
you must download and uncompress all of the corresponding product-specific
fix packs.
- If you plan to install the fix pack in silent mode, all of the
fix pack images must be uncompressed into subdirectories under the
same parent directory.
- If you plan to install the fix pack using the DB2 Setup wizard,
the setup command detects the other installed DB2 database products. If all of
the fix pack images for your DB2 database
products are uncompressed into subdirectories under the same parent
directory, the setup command automatically starts
installing the fix pack for all DB2 database
products without prompting you. If the fix pack product images are
uncompressed into different directories, the setup command
detects the other installed DB2 database
products and prompts you for each directory path.
Procedure
To uncompress a fix pack installation image, perform
the following steps:
- Change to the directory where you have downloaded the fix
pack installation image.
- Double click the self-extracting .exe file. The WinZip
Self Extractor window opens.
- Select a folder to contain the unzipped files.
- Click Unzip. All files are unzipped to the specified folder.
What to do next
Repeat
these steps to uncompress the self-extracting images for all of the DB2 database products you have installed.
If you want to perform a silent installation using a response file,
all of the images must be uncompressed to subdirectories under the
same parent directory.
