Re: Restore DB2 Archive from old release to a newer release database
Hello Ewald, I am afraid it is impossible. You will get msgs: ARI2038E Archive being restored is from a different release of DB2 Server for VM The restore has failed. ARI0032I The database manager has terminated. ARI0043I Database manager return code is 516. Do you still have V7.30 available? If you have, restore using V7.30 and then migrate it to V7.50 is the only way to do so.

Thanks Ewald Roller
Re: Restore DB2 Archive from old release to a newer release database
If you still have the 7.3 code disks lieing around, I would try logging on the 7.5 database, drop the 7.5 code disks, link and access the 7.3 code disks and then try the restore. It'll fail immediately if it won't work. My guess is it would work though if you have the 7.3 code disks accessed as Q & V Tony Pignataro From: Ewald Roller To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Date: 03/17/2011 01:50 PM Subject: Restore DB2 Archive from old release to a newer release database Sent by: The IBM z/VM Operating System Hi, this might be a silly question: is there a way to restore a DB2 ARCHIVE (taken with V7.3) to restore on a newly created DB2 V7.5 Database ?
