Problem description: | |
If the source image of DB2 contains a hyphen, the installer fails to determine the existence of Tivoli SA MP within the media. e.g. Install DB2 using db2_install machineA:/opt/ese-1 # rpm -q sam package sam is not installed machineA:/opt/ese-1 # ./db2_install -p ese -t /tmp/install.trc ... The execution completed successfully. machineA:/opt/ese-1 # rpm -q sam package sam is not installed After applying the fix, Tivoli SA MP will successfully be installed. | |
