Problem IC93982
|
Status: Closed |
WITHOUT UPGRADE_PRIOR_VERSIONS=TRUE, THE UPGRADE IS TREATED AS A NEW INSTALLATION |
| product: |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2 |
| Problem description: |
If you want to do a silent upgrade and you forget to set
UPGRADE_PRIOR_VERSIONS to true in your response file, the
upgrade will be treated as a new installation and will continue
without error. As a consequence, in the Add/Remove program,
there will be two entries for the DB2 product with the same
DB2COPY name : one for the old version and one for the new
version.
To avoid this issue, please use the recommended method for
upgrade : use UPGRADE_PRIOR_VERSIONS=YES in the response file. |
