You use the IBM Installation Manager product
to install, update, and uninstall the Data Studio full client.
Migrating to IBM Data Studio full client Version
3.1 or later
IBM Data Studio full client now
includes the features and functionality previously provided in the IBM® Optim™ Development
Studio and IBM Optim Database Administration products. Due
to the feature enhancements in
Data Studio full client,
you cannot use the update feature in
Installation Manager to
update past versions of IBM Data
Studio, IBM Optim Development Studio, or IBM Optim Database
Administration to
Data Studio full client Version
3.1 or later.
To migrate from past versions of IBM Data Studio, IBM Optim Development Studio, or IBM Optim Database
Administration, you have the following options:
- Install Data Studio full client Version
3.1 or later into a new package group:
- If you choose to install Data Studio full client into
a new package group, any existing products that are installed on your
computer are unaffected.
- Install Data Studio full client Version
3.1 or later into an existing package group:
- If you choose to install Data Studio full client into
an existing package group that contains any of the following products,
those products are silently uninstalled before Data Studio full client Version
3.1 or later is installed:
- IBM Data Studio Version 3.1 or earlier
- IBM Optim Development Studio Version 2.2.x or earlier
- IBM Optim Database Administrator Version 2.2.x
or earlier
- (For Data Studio Version 3.1.1 only) IBM Optim Query Tuner client Version 3.1 or earlier
All saved workspace information is unaffected by the silent uninstallation
process.
