How to find the DB2 installation path using db2ls
02 November,2015 by Tom Collins
Question: Is there a DB2 utility to find the DB2 installation path? The utility should also return installation date and other useful information. I need this utility to run on Linux.
Answer: From DB2 9.5 , the db2ls command is available. On a typical installation of a DB2 server, a symbolic link is added to the /usr/local/bin path.
A different resultset returns, depending on the installation. If you execute db2ls as root, only root installations are returned. If you execute as a non-root , the recordset includes DB2 installations by root and the DB2 installations completed by the id.
The columns returned are:
Install Path
Level
Fix Pack
Special Install Number
Install Date
Installer UID
