Response:

Response:

Customer had installed DB2/6000 according to the DB2 installation
instructions.  There is a step that mentions the cfg/db2ln command as
optional.  This command creates a link from /usr/lib to
db2/lib/libdb2.a.  The cmvcd command requires that the libdb2.a
archive be available; since cmvcd is a set-UID application, the
archive must reside in /lib or /usr/lib.  Unless the db2ln command is
run, the link from /usr/lib to /usr/lpp/db2*/lib/libdb2.a doesn't
exist, and the cmvc daemons will not load.  Thus, the db2ln command is
not optional when running DB2 under CMVC.

The customer manually created a link using the command

   ln -s /usr/lpp/db2*/lib/libdb2.a /usr/lib

and the daemons loaded properly.
