Upgrading Db2 Big SQL

A project administrator can upgrade the Db2® Big SQL service on IBM Cloud Pak® for Data.

Important: Starting with Db2 Big SQL 7.2.5, the Hive metastore backend database is the BIGSQL database. The data is stored in the HIVE schema, and accessed by a dedicated system user named hive. Consider the HIVE schema as an internal schema. When the upgrade is completed, its data must not be modified by any locally running workload.
