Local Fix:
- Prior to installing DB2: Remove the 'ITMA' subdirectory from 
the DB2 image.  DB2 will detect that ITMA is not present, and 
not install it.  This is a supported scenario -- no errors will 
be raised during installation. 
 
- Prior to installing DB2: For the silent install only, set the 
response file keyword INSTALL_ITMA to "NO". 
 
- After installing DB2: Uninstall ITMA. 
 
Selective uninstall of ITMA is documented in the Information 
Center here:
