96 DB2 Deployment Guide
DB2 Setup wizard
The DB2 Setup wizard can be executed in a language other than the default
system language by manually invoking the DB2 Setup wizard and specifying a
language code.
For example, the setup –i fr command runs the DB2 Setup wizard in French
on Windows (the db2setup –i fr command runs the DB2 Setup wizard in
French in Linux and UNIX).
For the Data Server Runtime Client or Data Server Driver for ODBC, CLI, and
.NET, there are separate install images for each language.
For further details regarding language identifiers for the DB2 Setup wizard, refer
to the following URL:

db2_install script
The db2_install is for Linux and UNIX. This script installs all features of a DB2
product to a given path. This is similar to db2_install method available for DB2
server product. Refer to 2.2.2, “db2_install” on page46 for details.
Response file install
A response file installation of the IBM data server client is similar to that of a DB2
server installation.
Here are the steps for installing the IBM data server client using a response file:
1. Create a response file:
– Modify a sample response file or manually create one.
– Use the DB2 Setup wizard to generate a response file.
– On Windows, you can also use the response file generator (db2rspgn).
2. If the response file was not created using the db2rspgn tool and if you want to
include a database profile in your deployment, generate a DB2 profile using
db2cfexp tool and include the DB2.CLIENT_IMPORT_PROFILE keyword
with the configuration profile name.
3. Execute setup using the –u option with the response file.
For further details regarding response file installation, refer to 2.2.3, “Response
file” on page 48.
