IT31374: AFTER INSTALL USING RESPONSE FILE WITH OUT EXTENDED SECURITY DB2SET CRASHING AND DB2ICRT FAILING

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The DB2 copy was installed using a response file that performs
  just the copy installation.
  With this response file DB2 extended security is NOT being
  enabled, and no default instance is being created.
  
  While the product installed correctly,  afterwards unable to
  perform either db2icrt (to create a new instance) or to invoke
  db2set:
  - db2icrt reported rights issue trying to create the instance
  directory, but both my user  and the instance user have
  administrative rights
  - db2set crashes
  
  -------------
  The keyword that seems to have caused it  was NO_CONFIG=YES.
  
  Without that keyword everything is good and registry keys are
  all set , but when  added to my response file  some registry
  keys are missing, DB2_EXTSECURITY , etc.
  

Local fix

• remove NO_CONFIG from response file
