Warnings occur during installation of DB2

While installing IBM® InfoSphere® Information Server, you might see a message indicating that warnings occurred during the installation of IBM DB2® Database for Linux®, UNIX, and Windows, or "Open File - Security Warning" messages might be displayed.

Symptoms

During the DB2 installation, warnings or other messages are displayed.

Resolving the problem

If the warnings are Open File - Security Warning messages, ignore the messages. Otherwise, do these steps:
  1. Look in the installation log file for a message that is similar to the following line:
    WARNING: com.ascential.acs.installer.asb.InstallDB2Action  
WRepositoryInstaller65507: Warnings occurred installing DB2. 
For details see the log file: 
C:\IBM\InformationServer\logs\db2_install.log
  2. View the log file that is specified in the warning message. You can ignore warnings such as SQL1362W or SQL20189W, which warn that the updates do not take effect until the next database startup. These warnings are not important because the installation program stops and restarts DB2 during the installation process.
