DB2 V8.2 Suitable FixPack for HADR!

Hi,
Current Version 8.2 FP12 on Windows 2003.

I am planning to install the latest FP17 for the HADR cluster setup.
IBM inforcentre says that the HADR can be setup to the cluster from FP15.
Is it advisable to go with the latest FP?

Is there anyway to uninstall the FP if I find that the FP is not suitable to my system?

Thanks, gunas

It is almost always advisable to install the latest fixpack. On Windows, you would have to unistall DB2 and reinstall to go backwards in fix pack level.
