Dear DB2 LUW early access team,
I try to install db2v11beta (xlc compilation) with the provided scripts db2_install and db2setup (my download link: DB2 on Linux for System z - ftp://diwebtools.canlab.ibm.com/devinst/db2_main/linux390x64/s1512022100/db2vnext_aese_zlinux64.tar.gz) on my new and barely touched RedHat7.2.
Unfortunately the following missing library error occurs (missing library: libibmc++.so.1)
----------- Error Message -----------

----------- End of Error Message-----------
As far as I explored libibmc++.so.1 is not provided by the standard package repositories on my redhat 7.2 (zlinux)
My help-your-self attempts did not work. Following attempts are performed:
- Install the downloadable XLC runtime (then retry to install db2)
- Install the downloadable XLC addons (then retry to install db2)
- Install the 60 days trial Version of XLC (then retry to install db2)
A dusty (2006) forum entry (link: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21249819) states to install the advanced version of XLC but I don't trust that old guy ;-) The hint may still be helpful: Which IBM product and which version of that product keeps my libibmc++ away from me?
What should I do to get the setup running or better, what is the proper way to setup my db2 version?
