Moving from AIX to Windows

db2inst2

Hello Everybody,

We are planning to move the DB2v8.1 which is currently AIX to Windows.

Right now i am testing it and used db2move & db2look to achieve that.
Is there anything in particular i should consider specifically for
these platforms, common mistakes or errors that i might ran into.

I am sure someone here should have done this before. It would be good
if you can share your experience.

thanks

You might also want to look at db2cfexp command.
It will extract your dbm and db cfg's as well as system, node,local
directories and some of your registry variables.
