Error description
The DB2 installation process will extract executable files to the /tmp filesystem and, as such, requires that the /tmp filesystem not be mounted with the 'noexec' parameter. Before performing the installation, the db2setup script will attempt to verify that the /tmp filesystem is not mounted with the 'noexec' parameter. A problem with the db2setup script was identified that could potentially cause installation failures to occur if any filesystems whose name contains the "/tmp" string are mounted with the 'noexec' parameter. For example, the output from the 'mount' command below shows 2 filesystems whose names contain the "/tmp" string: /dev/mapper/vg00-lvol1 on /tmp type ext4 (rw) /dev/mapper/vg00-lvol2 on /var/tmp type ext4 (rw,noexec) As the /tmp filesystem is not mounted with the 'noexec' parameter, we would expect that the db2setup script would complete successfully. However, because another filesystem whose name contains the "/tmp" string is currently mounted with the 'noexec' parameter, the db2setup script will fail and generate the following error: $ /tmp/db2tmp/ese/db2setup -r /tmp/db2tmp/db2resp.tmp -f sysreq -l ../logs/native/tsm_logs/db2_install.log DBI20043E DB2 failed to install because of restrictive permission settings on the temporary directory /tmp The problem with the db2setup script is documented in DB2 APAR IT13674: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1IT13674 IBM Spectrum Protect Versions Affected: All IBM Spectrum Protect server versions 7.1.3 and higher Initial Impact: Low Additional Keywords: tivoli storage manager db2install db2_install
Local fix
Prior to performing installation, any filesystems mounted with the 'noexec' parameter whose names contain the "/tmp" string should be temporarily unmounted or remounted without the 'noexec' parameter until after the installation has completed.
