Error description
If there is UNC reference in the PATH env variable then db2 setup.exe will fail with error: "DB2 Setup has detected a Universal Naming Convention path reference (ie. entry of the form \<computer name>\<share name>) in the PATH environment. You must remove this entry or change it to a mapped drive before you will be able to complete this install" We will be looking for opportinity to create a new response file keyword to skip the checking for existance of the UNC path.
Local fix
Map UNC to the network drive or put install image on the UNC path and install from there.
