In an attempt to save disk space, I went in and gzipped all of the log
files for my database running DB2 version 7.2 .  This resulted in the
database being marked bad because a log file was no longer found (I
think).

hi ,  all  .
I got a question about creating  indexes in db2  .
a table has 44236333 rows
an index planed to be build  include 2 field ( 6 byte )

Wanting to look at V9, I attempted to install Db2 Express-C on a Suse Linux
box I use as a sandbox.  Since I was less that thorough when removing
previous installations of V8 and V7, the installation failed creating the
admin server.  I now have a phantom instance that I can't ...

Does anyone know the link of IBM's web site for the Universal JDBC
driver for DB2?
I just can't find it.

I'm installing DB2 v8.1 on AIX but I need to modify the base directory
of the product.
In DB2 V.9 I can do ./db2_install -b /var/opt... but ¿Can I modify the
base directory in DB2 v.8.1?

Is there someone on earth (or elsewhere ;-)) who knows how to install a
DB2 V9.1 database engine in a High Availability cluster environment?
I need help on that particular point.
Best regards,

I have to use the QLA10025S translation table (SRTSEQ FOR LATIN 1

What are the different considerations/guidelines in chosing raw device
or file containers for DMS tablespaces?
A link would be very helpful.
Thanks,

I'm trying to tune access times on a table which size might vary (from 0
to at least several thousand records).
I've tried marking this table 'volatile' but it caused performance
penalties on some operations:

Hi guys. i would like to develop functions and procedures to execute
in db2 upon occurence of certain events within the stored data in db2.
I understand Oracle databases have Procedural language extensions to
Sql which makes this a lot easier. Is this also possible with db2.

 I was just thinking why do *bnd files to be binded with the DB2

Hi gurus, I know many of you are very senior DBAs and experts from IBM

Let's say I'd like perform a delete, but before I delete, I'd like to
export the target rows.
I could use an export whose SELECT clause references the OLD TABLE of
