IIS-CONN-DB2-00658E MKS Toolkit is not installed or the NUTCROOT environment variable is missing

Explanation

The MKS Toolkit is not installed or the NUTCROOT environment variable is missing.

When bulk loading to a Db2 for z/OS database, the Db2 connector requires the MKS Toolkit to create a pipe. The connector finds the MKS Toolkit by using the NUTCROOT environment variable which is typically present in the environments where MKS Toolkit is installed. This error occurs only on Windows systems.

User response

Do the following:
  • Install the MKS Toolkit, if it is not installed.
  • Define the NUTCROOT environment variable and add the root directory of the MKS installation.
