Resolving The Problem

The fix pack upgrade problem is fixed in Db2 pattern type 1.2.13.1, and the fix is uploaded to IBM® Fix Central. For more information, see http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/quickorder?product=ibm%2FWebSphere%2FIBM+Cloud+Pak+System&fixids=DB2_Ptype_1.2.13.1-cps&source=SAR.
For all new deployments or to update existing deployments (by using the Check for Updates option) to 1.2.13.0, use Db2 pattern type 1.2.13.1 instead of 1.2.13.0.
Prerequisites:
Db2 pattern type 1.2.13.1 is not bundled with the Db2 images. Therefore, Db2 pattern type 1.2.13.0 and the corresponding 11.1.4.5 and 11.5.4.0 images are the prerequisites for this pattern type to be used.
