Steps on Ubuntu to move db2 table to a different tablespace

FIXME

Start the instance as root

  • /etc/init.d/db2exc start

Become db2inst1 user

  • su db2inst1

Get into command line mode

  • db2

Run the following commands

db2 => connect to dbtest
db2 => list tables
db2 => create table test01 (a integer not null, b varchar(10), primary key(a))
db2 => create table test02 (x integer not null, y integer not null, z varchar(10), primary key(x,y))
db2 => create view v_test01 as select * from test01
db2 => alter table test02 add constraint test02_fk1 foreign key (x) references test01 (a) on delete restrict
db2 => alter table test02 alter foreign key test02_fk1 not enforced

To extract DDL use

  • db2look -d dbtest -e
