Quick Beginnings for DB2 Universal Database for UNIX
Use the instructions in this section to install a DB2
client. You can also run unattended installations of DB2 to remote
target machines running OS/2, Windows 3.x, and Windows 32-bit operating
systems.
A DB2 Client Application Enabler is installed with any DB2 Version 5
product. If a DB2 Version 5 product is already installed, there is no
need to install a DB2 Client Application Enabler. To configure your
client to access remote servers, see Chapter 13. Configuring Client-to-Server Communications Using the Client Configuration Assistant, or for UNIX users, see Chapter 14. Configuring Client-to-Server Communications Using the Command Line Processor.
Clients on a LAN that will connect to a DB2 Universal Database server must
have the appropriate DB2 Client Application Enabler or a DB2 Software
Developer's Kit installed.
DB2 Client Application Enablers and DB2 Software Developer's Kits are
available for the following: AIX, DOS, HP-UX, Macintosh, OS/2, SCO
UnixWare 7, SCO OpenServer, Silicon Graphics IRIX, SINIX, Solaris, Windows
3.x, and Windows 32-bit operating systems.
You may install DB2 Client Application Enablers on any number of
workstations; licensing restrictions are controlled at the server.
