I will be installing DB2 v9.5 on Linux using db2_install. Have some questions:
- do I need to install DAS on database server only or both database and appl. servers?
- when to apply licence before or after installing fixpacks?
- do I need to install products and then fixpacks? Or just fixpacks? I've heard product fixpacks contain the whole product now.

Thanks in advance

1) You only need to install DAS on database server
2) Does not matter, see 3
3) That is correct, you can install just the fixpack initially without installing the GA version.
