Install CF41 Files

__ 1. Login as root.
__ 2. Create DAS user and DB2 Instance Owner for CF41.
Create a new group: groupadd adm01
Create new users: useradd -g adm01 dasusr1
passwd dasusr1
ibm2blue
useradd -g adm01 inst411
passwd inst411
ibm2blue
__ 3. Create new instance : ./opt/ibm/db2/V9.1/instance/db2icrt -u inst411 inst411
__ 4. Create DB2 DAS : ./opt/ibm/db2/V9.1/instance/dascrt -u dasusr1
__ 5. Make a database subdirectory in the home directory: mkdir /database
__ 6. Make a subdirectory fo automatic storage: mkdir /dbauto
__ 7. Set the correct ownership: chown inst411.adm01 /database
__ 8. Set the correct ownership for auto storage path: chown inst411.adm01 /dbauto
__ 9. Set the correct permissions: chmod 2775 /database
chmod 2775 /dbauto
__ 10. Login as db2inst1 user: su - inst411
__ 11. Obtain the tar file for the CF41 class called cf419labfiles.tar.
__ 12. Copy this file to the bin subdirectory of the home directory of the db2inst1 user:
cd $HOME/bin
cp <path to file>/cf419labfiles.tar ~inst411
__ 13. Extract the tar file: tar -xzvf cf419labfiles.tar
__ a. The following will be extracted to the home directory of the inst411 user:
The application multi
The SQL applications sqltp1*
The bind files for all applications, *,bnd
The command file to create the TP1 database tp1class
The multi configuration files tp1*.cfg
Other files needed to support the lab exercises

LSG Customization before Copying

__ 1. You still need to be logged in as inst411.
__ 2. Verify that DB2 is running: db2start (if not running already, it will be started)
__ 3. Change to the bin subdirectory: cd bin
__ 4. Create Automatic storage paths: mkdir /dbauto/path1
mkdir /dbauto/path2
__ 5. Run the command script to create the TP1 database (tp1class) this will run for 5-10
minutes. Enter tp1class.cmd.
__ 6. When prompted, answer yes to recreate the TP1 database.
__ 7. When the script is complete, make sure you can connect to the new database, enter
db2 connect to tp1.
