IBM officially no longer supports DB2 version 11.50 since April 2018 and support for version 11.70 will cease to exist on September 30, 2020. DIGICORP performs the complete Update and Upgrade process for your DB2 Database for versions 12.10 or 14.10, ensuring that your systems operate safely and with guaranteed support.
Before upgrading to a newer version of DB2, we gather diagnostic information, especially if your applications are large and complex. Diagnostic information is important to verify the behavior of the Database server after the upgrade and also if post-upgrade support is required.
After collecting the necessary information and making the diagnosis with the collected data, we create backups of your IBM DB2 Databases according to the characteristics and complexity of your systems, in order to enable a process of reversion and restoration in case it occurs any problem during the Update.
Upgrading your IBM DB2 Database will use your existing test and production hardware, so the operating system installed on those computers must be compatible with the new version of DB2 that will be installed, and there must also be enough space for the conversion of data to the new architecture is successful.
After proper preparation of the existing operating systems and environments, the installation of the new version of the IBM DB2 Database will be performed on the machine where the software is already installed, in another directory. To save space, only the necessary components of the installation will be selected, according to the characteristics of your application.
We keep your IBM DB2 Database configuration intact, copying all current configuration files, in order to ensure that the existing data structure and relationship is not affected. We have also added new parameters to the settings if any changes to the architecture are necessary to ensure compatibility with the new version of DB2.
After all the previous steps have been performed, the new version of your IBM DB2 Database will be initialized and the data conversion will take place automatically for the updated version architecture.
A continuous monitoring of the IBM DB2 database will be performed after the update, in order to detect any anomalies, performance problems and inconsistencies in the data. If there are errors, DB2 Update Statistics will be collected and the necessary corrections will be applied to guarantee the success of the Update process.
