DB2 V8.2 install on Redhat 3.0 - AMD 64 bit

[dunleav1]

I downloaded the newest 64 bit SDK for IBM and installed it.
I downloaded and installed the C58SBML.tar - Db2 distribution for 64
bit AMD

The install worked and I created and instance however I can't run any
of the gui tools.

I get a message
$dbcc
CLI0622E: Error accessing JDBC administration service extensions.
When I run a db2level I get:
$db2level
DB21085I Instance "db2inst2" uses "64" bits and DB2 code release
"SQL08020"
with level identifier "03010106".
Informational tokens are "DB2 v8.1.1.64", "s040812", "MI00089", and
FixPak "7".
Product is installed at "/opt/IBM/db2/V8.1".
Any ideas ?

Try updating the admin cfg for the JDK_PATH and JDK_64_PATH

For example:

db2 update admin cfg using JDK_PATH /opt/IBMJava2-142
db2 update admin cfg using JDK_64_PATH /opt/IBMJava2-142

Your JDK 64 path is probably different than the one specified above, so
you will need to change it. Check the install path under directory /opt
for Linux systems.

stop and start the db2 administrative server (db2admin stop, db2admin
start). You may need to be logged on as the das owner (default dasusr1).

I performed the above steps with the same end result.
$dbcc
CLI0622E: Error accessing JDBC administration service extensions.

I tried installing the 32bit db2 on a Redhat 3.0 machine.
Install had no errors. I was able to create a database and run dbcc no
problem.

So, does db2 gui tools work on 64 bit install? Or is it bug?

Can anybody tell me the workaround to get the tools running ?
Help.

The DB2 tools need to run a JVM of the same bit width as the instance,
therefore your 64-bit db2 instance needs to have it's JDK_PATH config
parm pointing to a 64-bit JVM. You'll need to get this 64-bit JVM on
your own, since it's not included as part of the db2 install on AMD64.

Another option is to update your instance to use 32-bit (db2iupdt -w 32
.... ) and set the JDK_PATH to point to the 32-bit JVM installed by DB2.
