Starting the installation on UNIX and Linux

To install DWE on UNIX(R) or Linux(TM) operating systems, follow these steps: 1. Close any programs that are running. 2. Insert the DB2(R) UDB Data Warehouse Edition - Integrated Install CD into your CD drive. 3. Linux only: Before you insert the DB2 UDB Data Warehouse Edition - Integrated Install CD into your CD drive, you must make a temporary directory and enable your operating system to unmount the CD drive. To start the installation process on Linux, follow these steps: a. Open a terminal window. b. To make a temporary directory, issue the following command:
mkdir /dwe

c. Insert the DB2 UDB Data Warehouse Edition - Integrated Install CD into your CD drive. d. Issue the following commands in this order:
umount /mnt/cdrom mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /dwe /dwe/setup.sh

e. When the DWE installer prompts you to insert the next CD to continue the installation process, unmount the CD drive by issuing the following command:
umount /dwe

If you cannot mount the CD drive, wait until one of the DWE windows closes and issue this command again. f. Insert the next CD, and click OK. g. Continue following the installation instructions. 4. Go to the drive that contains the installation CD and locate the installation setup file for your operating system. Open the DWE Launchpad by issuing the following command at a command prompt:
/cd-location/setup.sh

where cd-location is the name of the directory where you mounted the CD. You must issue the setup.sh command from outside of the CD directory so that you can change CDs during the installation process. If you do not issue the

command from outside of the CD directory, the DWE program cannot unmount the CD drive.
