Cannot Determine the DB2 Fenced User Name

Problem Description

The installer displays the following error message and prompt when you enter C to continue from the DB2 Database Connection and Account Details Menu:

ERROR: Cannot determine the DB2 Fenced User name - check this is configured.
If this is a remote DB2 installation, enter the remote Fenced 
User name (Return if none) :

The DB2 Database Connection and Account Details Menu is then re-displayed.

The installer has been unable to determine the name of the UNIX account that is used to run fenced stored procedures from the DB2 database, either because it cannot contact the database, or because the database is remote.

Note 

Fenced stored procedures are run outside of the address space used by the DB2 database, to protect the database if a problem occurs in the stored procedure.

Affected Database

DB2

What To Do

To resolve this problem:

1. Make sure that the DB2 database is running and that your computer has a network connection to it.
2. Enter the name of the UNIX account that is used to run fenced stored procedures, or press ENTER to accept the default value.
