Locating Db2 Data Management Console home directory
IBM® Db2® Data Management Console supports both Script installer and GUI installer. This topic explains how to locate the IBM Db2 Data Management Console home directory that is used in both Script and GUI installation methods.
The IBM Db2 Data Management Console home directory <dmc_home> contains bin, support, setup and other folders.
Script installer
For the Script installer, <dmc_home> is the location where the installation package was decompressed after download.
For example, on the Windows platform, if the installation package of the script installer was decompressed to the below location:C:\IBM\ibm-datamgmtconsole
then the path of
<dmc_home> is:C:\IBM\ibm-datamgmtconsole
GUI installer
- Windows: Right-click on the IBM
Db2 Data Management Console icon on the desktop and select
Open file location. Continue to the resources\bin folder
to find the <dmc_home> directory.
For example, if the IBM Db2 Data Management Console was installed using GUI installer in the following location:
then the path of <dmc_home> is:C:\Program Files\IBM Db2 Data Management Console
C:\Program Files\IBM Db2 Data Management Console\resources\bin
- Linux®: Find the location where you extracted the
installation package, and enter the resources/bin directory to find the
<dmc_home> directory. For example, if the installation package of the
script installer was decompressed to the below
location:
then the path of <dmc_home> is:/opt/IBM/ibm-datamgmtconsole
/opt/IBM/ibm-datamgmtconsole/resources/bin
- Mac: In the Applications folder, right-click on IBM
Db2 Data Management Console and select Show Package
Contents. Enter Contents/Resources/bin directory to find the
