DB2 Version 9.7 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows
DB2 Version 9.7 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows
Support to install DB2® products across a network and set up the installation from a central location using Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) has been deprecated.
Starting with Version 9.7 Fix Pack 4, you can perform distributed installations of DB2 products using the Microsoft Systems Center Configuration Manager (SCCM).
Although you can still perform distributed installations of DB2 products using SMS, you should not use SMS for DB2 product installations as Microsoft has ended its support for this product.
Use SCCM to perform distributed installations instead. For details, see the SCCM documentation at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc507089.aspx.
