Disk requirements for DB2 UDB servers 

The disk space required for DB2 UDB depends on the type of installation you 

choose: 

Typical: Requires 450 to 500 MB

With Typical installation type, DB2 is installed with most features and 

functionality, including graphical tools such as the Control Center and 

Configuration Assistant

Compact: Requires 350 to 400 MB

With Compact installation type, only basic DB2 features and functions are 

installed, graphical tools are not included.

Custom: Requires 350 to 700 MB

With Custom installation type, you can select the features you want to install. 

The disk space needed varies based on the selected features.

When you install DB2 Enterprise Server Edition or Workgroup Server Edition 

using the DB2 set up wizard, size estimates are dynamically provided by the 

installation program based on installation type and component selection.

If the space required for the installation type and components exceeds the space 

found in the path specified, the setup program issues a warning about the 

insufficient space. The installation can continue. If the space for the files being 

installed is in fact insufficient, installation will stop, and the setup program needs 

to be stopped if additional space cannot be provided.

Remember to include disk space allowance for required software, 

communication products, and documentation. In DB2 UDB Version 8, HTML, 

and PDF documentation is provided on separate CD ROMs.
