Kernel configuration considerations

A system restart is required if you update the kernel configuration parameters. The kernel configuration parameters are set in /etc/system. Depending on the values of your kernel configuration parameters, modify some of them before you install the Version 9 client or DB2 server products. If the kernel parameter being modified is not listed as dynamic, a system reboot is required to make the changes to /etc/system take effect.

Software considerations

One of the following browsers is required to view online help and to run First Steps (db2fs):
- Firefox 2.0 and later
- Mozilla-based browsers 1.7 and later
An X Window System software capable of rendering a graphical user interface is required if:
- you want to use the DB2 Setup wizard to install a DB2 product on Linux or UNIX® operating systems
