DB2 v9.5 fix pack 1

After a few false starts, I was able to install fix pack 1 for IBM's DB2 version 9.5 on one of our AIX systems.

Executing the db2level command yields the following:

• DB21085I Instance "db2****" uses "64" bits and DB2 code release "SQL09051" with level identifier "03020107".
  
• Informational tokens are "DB2 v9.5.0.1", "s080328", "U814639", and Fix Pack "1".
  
• Product is installed at "/opt/IBM/db2/V9.5".

VisualSVN Server 1.5.1

Yesterday I installed the VisualSVN server product onto a Windows Server 2003 system. Quoting from the VisualSVN Server site

VisualSVN Server is less than 6MB in size and can be downloaded and installed in a couple of minutes with just few clicks.

Now the fun starts ... migrating several large VSS (Visual Source Safe) repositories and training the developers to use new source code management tools.

IBM Data Studio Administration Console

Today at work I downloaded and installed IBM Data Studio Administration Console Version 1.1.2 . I should have read the release notes closer. The installation process was very easy. After launching the product, I soon discovered that I wasn't going to be successful. I was able to define connections to several different databases, but, I could not enable monitoring for any of my databases. Each one I tried was not at the correct fix pack level.

Here's the relevant documentation from the release notes that I overlooked.

• The server console supports health monitoring for the following data servers:
  • DB2^® Version 9.5 Fix Pack 1 for Linux, UNIX^®, and Windows

I now need to upgrade my databases to DB2 version 9.5 fix pack 1.
