Dear DB2 experts!
I'm stuck with the following issue: from a customer I got a DB2 backup
file, created on an AIX-32 machine that I cannot restore on my windows
platform. I admit that I posses only limited knowledge on the
administration side of DB2, but I have done a lot of research, without
solving the problem.
What I tried:
For a regular RESTORE I would need a linux Big Endian machine
(according to the documentation there are three platform type that
cannot interoperate regarding backup/restore: Linux Big Endian, Linux
Little Endian and Windows) Unfortunatly I do not have a Linux Big
Endian machine at my disposal.
I already tried installing DB2 on kubuntu linux on an iBook G4 (which
has Power PC i.e. Big Endian architecture), but it did not work out (I
was told that the platform was incompatible with the installation
package). Maybe I was being naive trying this, but I understood that
DB2 works on Power PCs.
Is there a way to convert the backup file in a way that it can be
restored on the windows platform? Or is there maybe no solution?
I would be really grateful for advice!
Yours,
Markus

Cross platform restore is not supported between AIX and Windows so you
can't use this backup file. Check the article at the wrapped link below http://www-128.ibm.com/developerwork...echarticle/dm-
0403melnyk/index.html
to find out what needs to be done.
Only backup and restore were supported between unix.
For Cross platform. The possible way is work with db2look and db2move.
help this is helpful

Hi,
Doing a bit of system testing on a Windows 98 laptop. (.Net 1.1 app).
Did a bit of testing. Loaded a previously saved file. A gray box
appeared with the text and buttons all white rectangles with a big red cross
in it. Pressed a button (the one I thought might be ok). My file
appeared to load. Then when I clicked on any button on my form, the button
was replaced with a white rectangle with a big red cross in it.

Here's what I want do:
Have a main daemon which starts up several threads in a Boss-Queue structure.
From those threads, I want them all to sit and watch a queue. Once an entry
goes into the queue, grab it and run a system command.
Now I want to make sure that system command doesn't hang forever, so I need some
way to kill the command and have the worker thread go back to work waiting for
another queue entry.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
