Rolling out V8 client using response file

Helpful folks,

We have recently migrated from V7 to V8 of UDB on Windows 2003. We are
now in the process of setting up a rollout deployment to upgrade all
of our user clent PC's from the V7 client to the V8 client using a
response file. The process seems to go smoothly except for one major
glitch. All of our users have the DB2 Security Service running on
their machines set to start automatically. When the V8 migration takes
place, it seems to reset the DB2 Security Service to a manual start
setting. This is definitely NOT a workable situation. None of the
myriad parameters in the response file seem to address this issue.

Has anyone run accross this problem, and if so could you point me to a
solution?

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions.

Hello,

Did a v7 admcl to v8 admcl migration install test myself today on a
win2003 server machine. The "DB2 Security Server" service was started
after the migraton and a reboot (as required by the migraion). Its
startup type is still "Automatic" .

I suspect the reason why the startup type of this service was changed
from Automatic to Manual is: the keyword AUTOSTART_SECUR ITY_SERVER is
set NO in your response file.

Please check your rsp file, or send it to me.

Regards.

Hello, Sean:

If it is OK, please make sure AUTOSTART_SECUR ITY_SERVER=YES is set in
the rsp file and try the same install scenario again. Remember to turn
on the install trace option on in your re-testing, using the following
cmd line:
setup.exe -u [rspFile] -t [traceFile] -l [logFile]

Please provide the rsp file, install trace and logfile (db2wi.log in
the same dir of the logFile you specified) if the same problem is
still there. Not sure whether files can be attached in this forum.

BTW, the correct channel to report this problem and for better future
reference when you have any problem with DB2 is to contact IBM's DB2
service people/team, who will open a customer PMR about the problem.
If the DB2 service can not answer/solve the problem, then they will
open a CRM against the appropriate DB2 development team.
Regards.

Thank you!! That is exactly the kind of functionality I was hoping to
find in the response file. I will test this today.

However, may I ask where you found out about this parameter? I found
no hits on this keyword in the DB2 Info Center, the DB2 support site,
the DeveloperWorks site, Google itself, or any of the sample response
files supplied with the product. How did you learn about this?

Thanks again!

I am wanting to allow a client to download a file from a web server and save it on their local PC. The only way that I have found to do this is to use HTTP headers.

This is probably soooo simple but I can't seem to get it. I have a text file that I want users to download via a web page. I want the file to be saved to a default folder (or one that they choose) on the users / client file system. I have toyed with a Self-Extracting zip file but the contents of my zip file changes each time it is downloaded so that invalidates the exe file. Also the text file is so small it is a waste to zip it.

Guys, I have a client tool which runs and accepts files with "amt" extensions. All the "amt" files have been setup to open using my client tool which works great when I double-click on the file in the windows explorer. The way I'm creating the file is completely dynamic depending on the user's options. Once this memory stream has been created, I'm rendering on the screen.

Hi, I've been trying for 2 hours to install in silent mode a DB2 9 runtime client. Why didn't you make this process as simple as for the CLIENT install ?

Neither the db2rspgn utility, after the graphical setup has been done. Very disapointing ... maybe can someone highlight the...
