Two basic operations for installing the DB2 9 Management Software

We all know that there are four installation methods for the DB2 9 management software: the DB2 Installation Wizard, The db2_install installation script, and the Configuration File Installation and manual installation methods, the following is the first two installation methods.

DB2 Installation Wizard

Graphical interface wizard installation in Linux, Unix, and Windows operating systems is very useful for users who first install DB2 9. The Installation Wizard provides an easy-to-use installation interface, which simplifies operations such as database performance adjustment and optimization tasks after installation. The Installation Wizard can also be used to generate a database instance and describe the installation configuration file. In Unix or Linux environments, the installation wizard must be supported by the x server software.

Db2_install installation script

This script installation method can only be used in a Linux or Unix environment, and Windows does not support script installation. This method provides more fine-grained control over the installation process. However, this method cannot create database users and groups, create database instances, or configure after installation.
