Executive summary

The purpose of this paper is to provide a general understanding of DB2 silent installation and uninstallation, fix pack installation and uninstallation, and release upgrades as part of an application that you develop as an IBM Business Partner or client. You can use a response file to install an identical configuration across every workstation on your network or to install multiple configurations of a DB2 database product. You can then distribute this file to every workstation where you want the product to be installed. The concepts that are described in this paper also cover applications that support multitenancy.

Introduction

This document addresses IBM Business Partners and clients planning on deep-embedding DB2 software within their solutions. Deep embedding means that no
database administrator is involved and that all administration is done programmatically. This paper describes the processes of DB2 silent installation and uninstallation, silent fix pack installation and uninstallation, and silent upgrades to later DB2 versions and releases.
You can use DB2 silent installation and uninstallation to install and uninstall DB2 products or components without any user interaction, unlike when you use the DB2 Setup wizard. Silent installation is useful for large-scale deployments of DB2 product editions. As an IBM Business Partner or IBM client, you can also use silent installation or uninstallation to embed the DB2 installation and uninstallation processes inside the procedures for your solutions.
Although DB2 silent installation and uninstallation, silent fix pack installation and uninstallation, and silent upgrades to later DB2 versions and releases are available for all supported operating systems, this document covers the processes on Windows 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems only.
The first section of this document provides a short introduction to DB2 silent installation. The second section covers the uninstallation process. The third section describes a fix pack update. The fourth section provides a detailed description of a version and release upgrade. The final section provides examples of simple and complex DB2 installation and uninstallation.
