Hi,
due to an upgrade from a former DB2 v7.02, I backed up an entire
database to a file in the local filesystem under Linux.
I removed the old version completely an installed a fresh v8.1 DB2.
After initialisation, I tried to restore the old database into
the new DB2 version with db2cc or db2 command line interface.
The process fails with the following error message:
db2 => restore database EAD from "/my/path/TESTDB.0.db2ins t1.NODE0000.CAT N0000.200401081 42834.001"
SQL2036N The path for the file or device
"TESTDB.0.db2in st1.NODE0000.CA TN0000.20040108 142834.001" is not valid.
The path is doubtless correct, though ...
Any help appreciated, TIA,
Frank

Correct, but incorrect. Try RESTORE... FROM /my/path, without
specifying the file itself. To specify a particular backup image if
there are multiple images in that path, then use the TAKEN AT
<timestamp> option.
The RESTORE path is a directory or device where the backup image exists,
just as with the BACKUP command.
Hope that helps.

Your command should only be:db2 => restore database TESTDB from "/my/path"
taken at 20040108142834
Then:
db2 catalog db TESTDB as EAD on <whichever path TESTDBwas restored on>
db2 uncatalog db TESTDB
I presume here that the instance is also db2inst1 on the new system.
DB2 will recognize DB2 V7 as the source and the migration to V8 will be
automatic during the restore.
HTH, Pierre.

Thank you both, Kelly and Pierre, for the successful hint!
FWIW, I don't understand why db2cc prints a different
SQL statement, which was my starting point for doing
it on the DB2 shell. That command *did not* work, your
hint *does*

Frank

it looks like this will save many versions of a relationship window,
but based on the fact that the same tables are displayed in the
relationship window
and it will restore versions of what was saved as long as all the
tables that were saved are currently shown in the relationship window
so if I have 2 tables, employee and customer
and if I show just the employee table in the relationship window, I can
save it as 'employee'

We are experiencing a bizarre problem under Linux attempting to restore a DB2 database. The backup was created on this machine, and is being restored to the same machine, but changing the name of the database, and redirecting the tablespaces. The system is running DB2 Express C V9.5 and RHEL5 with latest updates
The restore commands we are trying to run are as follows:
