Windows x64: Double-click sds-6.4.0.25-win64.zip from Windows File Explorer and extract to a folder such as C:\Temp\.
- Contents of compressed file are extracted to a folder called "sdsV6.4" that contains all the required files to proceed with the installation.
In all the following steps, "<path>" is the parent folder of "sdsV6.4".
- Install DB2 on a SDS/DB2 system (Refer to https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2/11.5?topic=servers-db2-installation-methods):
Here are some typical examples to install DB2
cd <path>/sdsV6.4/ibm_db2
AIX: ./db2_install -y -f NOPCMK -f NOTSAMP -p SERVER -b /opt/IBM/db2/V11.5
Linux: ./db2_install -y -f NOPCMK -f NOTSAMP -p SERVER -b /opt/ibm/db2/V11.5
Windows: DB2 gets installed along with SDS 6.4.0.25 during Step 6.
Verify the installation by using:
AIX, Linux: /usr/local/bin/db2ls
- Install GSKit and verify installation:
AIX:
cd <path>/sdsV6.4/ibm_gskit
installp -acXgYd . GSKit8

- Verify the contents of SDS global ldapdb.properties file in <sds64_install_location>/etc/ folder:
- AIX:
- Verify the ldapdb.properties file contents:
cat /opt/IBM/ldap/V6.4/etc/ldapdb.properties - Expected output:
currentDB2InstallPath=/opt/IBM/db2/V11.5
currentDB2Version=11.5.7.0
- Verify the ldapdb.properties file contents:
- Linux:
- Verify the ldapdb.properties file contents:
cat /opt/ibm/ldap/V6.4/etc/ldapdb.properties - Expected output:

cd <sds64_install_location>\etc
For example, cd C:\Program Files\IBM\ldap\V6.4\etc
type ldapdb.properties - Find the current DB2 11.5.7 installation path and version information by opening a "DB2 command window as Administrator".
If you have multiple copies of DB2, use the correct DB2 11.5 installation copy from start menu to open "DB2 command window as Administrator". Run the command:
db2level - Update contents of ldapdb.properties file by using a notepad as shown:
currentDB2InstallPath=<supported_db2_install_location>
currentDB2Version=<supported_db2_version_level>

- Optionally install SDS provided "premium feature activation package":
If you are using the "SDS Direct Entitled Part" (refer to table in bullet 1), then the "entitlement" folder is available inside the extracted "sdsV6.4" folder:- AIX:
cd <path>/sdsV6.4/entitlement
installp -acXFYd . idsldap.ent64 - Linux:

- AIX:
Next Steps after successful SDS 6.4 installation:
- Create and configure a new SDS 6.4 instance
- Upgrade an instance of a previous version (V6.3 / V6.3.1) to SDS 6.4 instance:
- Remote system migration
- Same system migration from V6.3 / V6.3.1 (with DB2 9.7 or DB2 10.1) requires two steps migration for DB2:
a. Upgrading to SDS 6.4 using DB2 10.5
- Directly install latest recommended fix level of for DB2 10.5 FP11
- Update ldapdb.properties (as in Step 8) to point to DB2 10.5.
- Only after these steps, use idsimigr tool to upgrade V6.3 / V6.3.1 instance to SDS 6.4 along with DB2 10.5
- Now change ldapdb.properties (as in Step 8) back to point to DB2 11.5.
b. Then, update DB2 10.5 to DB2 11.5 (Read the next step for details)
- On an existing SDS 6.4 instance with DB2 10.5 or 11.1, upgrade the DB2 to 11.5 using "idsdbmigr" tool provided by SDS 6.4 (in sbin folder of SDS 6.4 installation)
- Stop ibmslapd and ibmdiradm processes for the SDS 6.4 instance.
- Upgrade DB2 instance associated with SDS 6.4 instance and its database to 11.5 level from 10.5 or 11.1 level:
idsdbmigr -I <sds_instance_name> -N <db2_11.5_install_location>
