The startup scripts idxadv.cmd or idxadv.sh need to be modified to run in your environment.

The DB2DRIVER script variable must be set to the location of the DB2 JDBC driver jar files on your system. If the JDBC Type 4 connection (no DB2 client installed) is being used, it is only necessary to specify the db2jcc.jar file. If a JDBC Type 4 connection is being used, the appropriate license file needs to be specified as well.

An optional capability of the DB2 Spatial Index Advisor is to display the geometry size statistics in graphic form in addition to tabular form. This requires the separate download and installation of the open source JFreeChart package, http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/. The startup scripts need to be modified to set the GRAPH variable to the names and locations of the charting jar files.

A Java runtime environment at the level of Java 5 or higher is required.
