Upgrading to Db2
version 11.1 requires that you upgrade your existing Db2
servers.
Upgrading your Db2 server
requires that you install a Db2
version 11.1 copy and then upgrade all the instances and databases to be able to run them
under the Db2
version 11.1 copy.
You can directly upgrade existing Db2
version 9.7, Db2
version 10.1, or
Db2
version 10.5
instances and databases to Db2
version 11.1. Learn details, limitations about the upgrade process, and possible issues
that you must be aware of in Upgrade essentials for Db2 servers. Refer to the upgrading Db2 server
tasks for details on how to upgrade to Db2
version 11.1. In the upgrading Db2 server
topics, the term pre-Db2
version 11.1 copy refers to Db2
version 9.7, Db2
version 10.1, or
Db2
version 10.5.
On Windows operating systems, you can
automatically upgrade an existing pre-Db2
version 11.1 copy. If you choose to upgrade your existing Db2 copy
during installation, you need to only upgrade your databases after installation.
If your Db2 servers are running on a release before Db2
version 9.7, upgrade them first to Db2
version 9.7, Db2
version 10.1, or
Db2
version 10.5, and
then upgrade to Db2
version 11.1. It is recommended that you upgrade to the latest fix pack of Db2
version 9.7.
