Completing the migration to a new version of Db2


Perform the following procedure to verify the values for the DB2EXIT and DB2LOAD libraries.

  1. Verify the values for the libraries in the product options file (POF).
    1. Edit the POF in your HLQ.UBMCCNTL data set. The name of the file is specified in the POFDS keyword in the installation options module for your product.
    2. Ensure that the values for the DB2EXIT and DB2LOAD keywords are correct for the version of DB2 to which you have migrated.
  2. If you modified the values in the POF in step 1, refresh the POF. When you refresh the POF, users receive the updated values.
    1. Edit the initial POF outside of the product.
    2. Change the value of the POFDATE keyword to the current date.
    3. Append the refresh attribute ,(R) to the values that you want to update.
    4. Save the POF.
    5. (for runtime data sets) Copy the POF from HLQ.UBMCCNTL to HLQ.BMCCNTL.
  3. Verify the values for the libraries in the control table.

    1. Edit the control table in the HLQ.CONTAB data set.
    2. Ensure that the location and name of the DB2EXIT and DB2LOAD libraries are correct for the version of DB2 to which you have migrated. For example:
    *LIB SSID Data Set Name
    *----|----|-------------------------------|
     EXIT DB11 'SYS3.DB11.DSNEXIT'           *
     LOAD DB11 'SYS2.DB2V11M.DSNLOAD'        *
