Quick Beginnings for DB2 Universal Database for UNIX

Step 1. Identify and Record Parameter Values

Table 7 will help you determine the values required to install DB2 products, set up a DB2 instance and configure the Administration Server. Before proceeding with the installation and configuration, complete the Your Value column in the table. If you want to choose the default value for a parameter, you do not need to provide any value in the Your Value column for that parameter. In Table 7, the only parameter for which a value is required is DB2 Product Name. All other parameters either have a default value or are optional.
