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
Query Manager Select Pak.
This means 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.
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 JR07499 - Directory Naming
Query Manager has been changed to allow a single period in directory names
in places where OS/2 file names can be specified (e.g. TEMP.DIR).
APAR JR07742 - Searching tables with Long Varchar
In some cases, when a PERFORM SEARCH was executed from Query Manager on
tables with columns of type long varchar, a SYS3175 error was returned.
The search will now execute correctly.
