Db2 support tools

The Db2® support tools (also referred to as the dbtoolkit) are a collection of scripts and utilities that are based on similar ones that are delivered for IBM PureData® System for Analytics (Netezza®) appliances.

You can use the Db2 support tools to copy data from Netezza databases to Db2 warehouse databases and to connect to a Db2 warehouse database from a command line interface that is running on the client system. From the command line, you can run SQL queries and use other scripts to query the database and to export Db2 warehouse object definitions. If you plan to use the tools to copy Netezza data to a Db2 warehouse, the client system must have network access to the Netezza database.
