Error description
Spectrum Control 5.2.15 requires a minimum level of DB2 10.5. This means that existing users with DB2 10.1 must upgrade to a new minimum level of DB2 10.5 prior to upgrading to Spectrum Control 5.2.15. The Spectrum Control Knowledge Center mentions this requirement and points to the support matrix for details about supported levels, but it does not give guidance on the process required for upgrade, such as where to start in the DB2 Knowledge Center and which steps are required.
Local fix
Steps 14 - 20 in the following IBM Spectrum Control Knolwedge Center topic can be used to upgrade from DB2 10.1 to 10.5. Make sure you have backed up the databases (TPCDB and TCRDB) first. https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS5R93_5.2.15/com.ib m.spectrum.sc.doc/fqz0_t_upgrading_db2.html
