Problem IC69859
|
Status: Closed |
DB2 PROFILE REGISTRY KEYS IN THE 32-BIT HIVE WERE NOT REMOVED BY THE DB2 UNINSTALL |
| product: |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 |
| Problem description: |
When a 64-bit DB2 product is uninstalled from a x64 windows
system, the following registry keys in the 32-bit registry hive
might not be removed:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\IBM\DB2\InstalledCopies\{CopyName}\GLO
BAL_PROFILE
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\IBM\DB2\InstalledCopies\{CopyName}\PRO
FILES
Since these registry keys were created by the DB2 Management
Service, not by the DB2 Installer, they are not removed by
Windows Installer during the uninstall.
This APAR will enhance the uninstaller to remove these keys
during the uninstall. |
