DB2 Data Links Manager Quick Beginnings

Verifying the Installation on AIX

This chapter describes how to verify your installation on AIX by configuring a DB2 Data Links Manager environment to control files that are linked to DATALINK columns on a DB2 Universal Database server.

There are six procedures involved in verifying your installation:

• 1. Creating a test environment on the DB2 UDB server.
• 2. Creating a test environment on the DB2 Data Links server.
• 3. Registering the Data Links server with the DB2 UDB database.
• 4. Verifying the sample file is controlled by DLFF.
• 5. Verifying the sample file is accessible.
• 6. Viewing the sample file.

Troubleshooting information can be found in Troubleshooting the configuration on AIX. Workarounds for known issues in NFS environments can be found in Workarounds in NFS environments.
