If you find that the current date has exceeded this date, or you do not have DB2 license information, you need to install the DB2 license file.

You can see the following output information:

Product Password = DB2UDBEEE 
  
  
Version Information = 7.2

The Expiry Date is "never expire". If there is no such information, it indicates that the DB2 license file has not been successfully installed. Generally, if you use the Installation tool provided by DB2, after the installation is complete, the DB2 license will be automatically registered. However, on Unix-based operating systems, you can also install DB2 using the Installation tool provided by the system. At this time, the DB2 license file will not be automatically installed, you must manually execute the command after the DB2 installation is complete.

(2) the method for installing the license file is as follows:

Run the following command to install/update the license:

DB2 version 5:

/Usr/lpp/db2_05_00/cfg/db2licinst filename

DB2 version 6, 7:

/Usr/lpp/db2_07_01/adm/db2licm-a filename

Filename indicates the full path name of the license file on the product installation media. This license information will be added to the/var/ifor/nodelock file of the system. In this case, you can go to step 9 in the process and continue to complete the process.
