DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC91271 Status: Closed

PERFORMING DB2 BRUTE FORCE UNINSTALLATION DAMAGES GSK 7(IF INSTALLED).

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
Brute force option is supposed to be used when one doesn't want 
uninstaller to keep tracking of reference count to related 
sub-products. By the default, 8 version of Global Security 
Kit(GSK) is used by DB2 9.7, it's one of DB2 sub-products. 
However GSK version 7 can be installed as separated product or 
can come in a bunch of another product with no relation to DB2. 
Uninstaller will delete its registry keys, which causes 
irreversible damage to GSK version 7. 
 
Cause of that behavior lies in db2NewRegHKLM.txt file, which is 
used in phase of registry clean-up, it contains keys to be 
deleted. Wrong GSK version was saved in the file.
