Addendum to Nways Manager for Windows NT Installation Guide

Verifying DB2 and FixPak 8

Reference to Checklist:

This section corresponds to step 4.

Note
This section only applies if you believe that DB2 is already installed on your machine and you elect to use this as your database for Nways Manager. If this is not the case, continue with "Installing SNMP Services".

To verify that DB2 and the required FixPak 8 are properly installed on your system:

Select Start -> Programs -> MS-DOS Prompt.
Type regedit, and the Registry Editor window will open.
Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> IBM -> DB2 -> DB2 Universal Database Enterprise Edition. If DB2 is not listed, then it is not installed.
Click on the Current Version folder.
Verify the following lines in the right panel:

Version 0x00000005 (5)
Release 0x00000002 (2)
Modification 0x00000000 (0)
Service Level WR09094

If the Service Level does not match, then FixPak 8 is not installed.
Close the Registry Editor window.

If either DB2 or FixPak 8 are not installed, then you will need to install them when you reach the proper step in this document.
Important

These items pertain to steps 5 through 7.

Versions 2 and earlier of the IBM AntiVirus for Windows NT application are incompatible with this installation program. These versions of IBM AntiVirus must be uninstalled before installing Nways Manager. After installation completes, you can reinstall IBM AntiVirus and activate it. Deactivating these versions of IBM AntiVirus is not sufficient; you must uninstall them. If you do not remove IBM AntiVirus, the installation program does not create any product icons or folders in the Windows NT Start Menu.
Shut down all Windows NT applications before installing Nways Manager. If any application is running that uses the contents or the existence of any file that is used during the install process, the installation may fail. If you experience problems when the installation attempts to create product icons, ensure that you do not have any antivirus applications installed.
Any previous versions of Nways Workgroup Manager or Nways Manager for Windows must be uninstalled at this time according to the instructions provided in that application's documentation.
