OS/2 PM INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
---------------------------------
To start the Presentation Manager Select Pak install, type DB2FIX
on a command line, select ACTION from the action bar and then
SERVICE from the pull down menu.
If you have just finished installing IBM DB2/2, IBM DB2/2 Service
Pak WR07015 (syslevel WR07015), IBM refresh code level v1.0.1,
IBM Lan Server/Requester, or IBM CM/2, please shutdown and reboot
your system before installing the DOS/ Windows Client Select Pak.
This means that you will have to reboot twice, once after the
installation of these products to process any locked files, and a
second time before using the Select Pak to process some remaining
locked files.
PC DOS\WINDOWS INSTALLATION
---------------------------
To install the Select Pak on a DOS\Windows machine, use the
following command:
svpinst3 <x> /<d!w!dw> φy∙
Where x is the drive on which the DOS\Windows requester is
installed.
/d specifies installation of the DOS fixes
/w specifies installation of the Windows fixes
/dw specifies installation of both DOS and Window fixes
y is the drive you are installing from (default is the
current drive)
CID INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
-----------------------------
For DB2/2 CID Select Pak install, please use the sample response
file DB2FIX.RSP provided on diskette 1. This file can be modified
to fit your installation needs.
NOTE: The keywords found in DB2FIX.RSP are the ONLY supported CID
keywords in this version of the CID install program.
The Select Pak CID install program (DBFIXCID.EXE) uses the same
syntax as the DB2/2 CID install program. Refer to the DB2/2
Installation Guide for a description.
For a description of the CID install key words, refer to Appendix
B of the DB2/2 Installation Guide. One keyword has been added to
support the Select Pak install:
> DBReplace - replaces files on the target system if they have a
later date/time stamp than the ones shipped with the
Select Pak (1=YES 0=NO).
NOTE: The CID keyword DBUpdateType can only be equal to 1, which
specifies to install the Select Pak. No other values are supported.
NOTE: If a certain component, say, Query Manager is not installed
on a given system, specifying CID keyword DBInstallQueryManager=Y
would have no effect. It would just be ignored for that particular
system and no Query Manager fixes would be installed.

WHAT'S CHANGED - APAR DESCRIPTIONS
----------------------------------
The following changes have been made as a direct result of
customer feedback.
The fixes contained in this Select Pak are fixes that have gone
into the product since Service Pak WR07015 was shipped.
APAR JR07462 - Display thread on DB2/MVS
The DOS requester was not sending the correct thread ID and server
name to DB2/MVS when connecting through DDCS. With this fix, the
DOS requester willalways send out a thread ID of 0 and the correct
server name.
APAR JR07728 - Application Abends
Previously, when running an SQL application using host variables
on a machine with less than 265K available DOS memory, the applicat-
ion could abend with an SQLCODE of 4911N. This problem will no
longer occur.
