218 Deployment Guide Series: IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager
5.1 IBM DB2 UDB installation
This section covers the DB2 UDB V8.1 server installation on an AIX 5L
environment. The following steps install the DB2 UDB on the /usr file system and
create a instance called tivoli in the /DB2Instancefs. This instance will be used
later to store all the databases from IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager Version
4.2.2.
Before installing the DB2, create the file system /usr/opt/db2_08_01 with 500 MB
to store the DB2 bin files:
crfs -v jfs -g rootvg -m'/usr/opt/db2_08_01' -p'rw' -a size='500M' -a
frag='4096' -a nbpi='4096' -a ag='8' -A'yes'
Now, we can install DB2 UDB V8.1 for AIX binaries:
1. Mount the cdrom on your AIX machine.
mount -v cdrfs -r /dev/cd0 /cdrom
2. Create a temporary file system on the local machine with 750 MB to store the
installation binaries files:
smitty crjfsstd
or
crfs -v jfs -g rootvg -m'/source_dir' -p'rw' -a size='750M' -a frag='4096'
-a nbpi='4096' -a ag='8'
3. Mount the new file system:
mount /source_dir
4. Go to the /source_dir directory:
cd /source_dir
5. Uncompress the binary file:
zcat /cdrom/DB2ESE.V812/ese.sbcsaix1.tar.Z | tar -xf -
6. Run the db2setup command to start the install process:
/source_dir/ese.sbcsaix1/db2setup
7. Figure 5-1 on page 219 shows the first window of the DB2 UDB installation.
Select Install Products from the right menu initiate the install process of DB2
UDB V8.1.
