db2 v8 fp4 and db2 v8 fp5

AIX 5.2

Hi,

I have db2 v8 fp5 installed in the server. Now client wants to have v8 fp4 installed as well along with v8 fp5. I have never done this multi-fixpak installation...any idea and documentation?

Thanks

From V8 multiple fixpacks can co exist.
When you are installing the code Use a different directory.
This feature is avilable only for Unix based systems

If you have fp5 installed, I don't think you can go the the alternate fixpack 4 ...

Fixpak 4a readme says:
* You must have a DB2 product Version 8 installed at a lower VRMF level
than DB2 Version 8.1.4 before installation.


Cheers
