RE: [DB2EUG] Migrating from version 6.1 to version 7.2

In addition to the steps Judith identified you may also want to add step 7.a
bind the db2ubind and db2cli packages on your databases

Hi Tim,

I just did this last December with DB2 UDB EE on AIX.  Here is what I
did (as
closely as I can remember...)

1) db2stop
2) Offline backup
3) Install v7.2
4) Install FP5
5) Probably need to update your DB2 product license (see page 28, Quick
Beginnings)
6) Run db2imigr to migrate your instance(s).  It says to also run the
db2imigr
on the DAS instance, but I had trouble with that.  I ended up dropping
and
recreating a new v7.2 instance.
7) db2start
8) Test!
9) Another offline backup

Note:  You don't have to migrate the database(s) if you are going from
v6.1 to
v7.2, per page 71 in the Quick Beginnings manual.

I am going from memory and I have slept since then, so I may not be
remembering
everything.  I think it is at least close!  Others will chime in if I
forgot
something!

Good luck!
Judy

Hello list,

I am currently planning on upgrading some DB2 UDB servers to version 7.1
fixpack 5(7.2) of DB2.  I have been
looking through the Quick beginnings manual for migrating to version 6.1
and was wondering if the process is the
same for migrating to version 7.2.  Also, I notice the db2uiddl is an
optional feature in this manual when
upgrading to 6.1, I was wondering if that is still the same for
upgrading
to 7.2.  If it is still optional, how important
of a task is it?

Currently, this is my plan :
     Take an offline backup of all of the databases
     Execute db2stop
     Execute db2ckmig against all of the databases and verify results
     Install the new db2 version
     Execute db2 migrate command against all of the databases
     Execute db2start

Does this sound correct?  Any other things to watch out for would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
Tim
