Iam into setting up db2 partition (either db2 v8 and above or db2 v9). (LUW)
Can anyone give me the following?

* Installation on windows
* Installation on unix (any flavour)
* Any documents that you can direct me. (any links, pdf's etc)

Do let me know, that will be much help to me.
thanks

Try the following steps

Setting up DPF environment on Windows machines:
1. CREATE MPP INSTANCE
db2icrt MPP -s ese -u administrator,mypasswd -r 50000,50004
Format: db2icrt <instance-name> -s <type of instance which is ese for DPF> -u username,password -r <starting port number>,<ending port number>
These port numbers should not be listed in services file.
2. set DB2INSTANCE=MPP
Set it the instance just created;
3. Run following commands to create 3 nodes:
db2ncrt /n:1 /u:<username>,<passwd> /i:MPP /p:1
db2ncrt /n:2 /u:<username>,<passwd> /i:MPP /p:2
db2ncrt /n:3 /u:<username>,<passwd> /i:MPP /p:3
4. db2 terminate
5. db2stop force
6. db2start
This will show 3 nodes started successfully.
