Post subject: Why no /usr/lpp/db2_08_01 directory (and where's all the stuff)?
Archived from groups: comp>databases>ibm-db2 (more info?)
In DB2 v7, there is a basic directory /usr/lpp/db2_07_01 which
contains useful stuff like a ./instance directory with more useful
stuff inside (like db2icrt).

In DB2 v8, I have no simple /usr/lpp/db2_08_01directory (even though
the docs refer to it). Instead I have a whole slew of directories in /
usr/lpp such as:

db2_08_01.adsg
db2_08_01.adt.rte
db2_08_01.adt.samples
db2_08_01.ca
db2_08_01.cc
...

Is there something goofy with my DB2 installation? Or are the goodies
somewhere else?

Thanks!

Only 3 more months before DB2 V8 goes out of support.

Did you check /usr/opt?

According to AIX's guidelines, software isn't actually supposed to install
to /usr/lpp - that's reserved for LPP (installp). Thus, DB2 moved to
/usr/opt, as per AIX's guidelines.

You should also notice the "whole slew of directories" in /usr/lpp for v7 as
well. You just may not have noticed before Wink

But, as has been pointed out, you should be moving to v9 ASAP since v8 is
about to go out of support.
