DB2 Version 9.7 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows

Updating a Trial license

You cannot use this method to update from one DB2 product to another.

If a previously licensed copy of a DB2 server product does not already exist, a single server fix pack image can be used to install any of the DB2 database server products. In this case, the license installed is a trial license.

To update your DB2 license:

1. Get the license key. The license key is available from either:
   • the activation key that you downloaded from Passport Advantage®, or
   • the Activation CD that you received in the physical media pack from IBM®.
2. Register the license key using the License Center or the db2licm command.
   Note:
   The trial license for DB2 Enterprise Server Edition on 32-bit Linux® cannot be updated to a production license.
