116 <strong>Getting</strong> started <strong>with</strong> open source development<br />
From the above figure, you can see the IBM Data Server Runtime client has all the<br />
components you need (driver and network support) to connect and work <strong>with</strong> a DB2 Data<br />
Server. The IBM Data Server client has this same support and also includes GUI Tools and<br />
libraries for application development.<br />
In addition to these clients, provided are these other clients and drivers:<br />
• DB2 Runtime Client Merge Modules for Windows: mainly used to embed a DB2<br />
runtime client as part of a Windows application installation<br />
• IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ: allows Java applications to connect to<br />
DB2 servers <strong>with</strong>out having to install a client<br />
• IBM Data Server Driver for ODBC and CLI: allows ODBC and CLI applications to<br />
connect to a DB2 server <strong>with</strong>out having to install a client<br />
• IBM Data Server Driver Package: includes a Windows-specific driver <strong>with</strong> support for<br />
.NET environments in addition to ODBC, CLI and open source. This driver was<br />
previously known as the IBM Data Server Driver for ODBC, CLI and .NET.<br />
There is no charge to use DB2 clients or drivers.<br />
B.3 Installing DB2<br />
In this section we explain how to install DB2 using the DB2 setup wizard.<br />
B.3.1 Installation on Windows<br />
DB2 installation on Windows is straight-forward and requires the following basic steps:<br />
1. Ensure you are using a local or domain user that is part of the Administrator group<br />
on the server where you are installing DB2.<br />
2. After downloading and unzipping DB2 Express-C for Windows from<br />
ibm.com/db2/express, look for the file setup.exe, and double-click on it.<br />
3. Follow the self- explanatory instructions from the wizard. Choosing default values<br />
is normally sufficient.<br />
4. The following is performed by default during the installation:<br />
- DB2 is installed in C:\Program Files\IBM\SQLLIB<br />
- The DB2ADMNS and DB2USERS Windows operating system groups are<br />
created.<br />
- The instance DB2 is created under C:\Program Files\IBM\SQLLIB\DB2<br />
- The DB2 Administration Server (DAS) is created<br />
- Installation logs are stored in:<br />
