DB2 considerations
Before you run the installation jobs to create the DB2® environment, you must consider
and decide the following questions.

To create a new DB2 configuration,
select option 1 from the configuration menu. To access a previous DB2 configuration, select option

Create a new DB2 environment
This section describes the steps that are required to define
your CICS IA DB2 database, and how to review and submit the
sample jobs that you configured in the previous section.
Loading the IVP data and connect to the CICS IA plug-in
CICS IA provides
sample data that you can load into your new IA DB2 database. You can then connect to the database
with the CICS IA plug-in for CICS Explorer® and verify
that your DB2 database is created
successfully.
