Dear Team,
Is it possible to restore Offline backup of DB2 9.7.3 to DB2 9.7.7? Is there any issue being observed of doing so?
Thanks
Mehul
Hi Mehul,
As there is only a fix pack difference, I do not see any major hiccups in restoring 9.7.3 to 9.7.7 database using offline backup.

Hi,
reverting a fixpack may cause problems since new fixpacks may update table functions in the system catalog ( db2updv97 ).
After restoring a V9.7 FP3 Backup with V9.7 FP7 software you should run db6_update_db for the same reason. db6_update_db wil call db2updv97 and this may update table functions in the system catalog.
select * from sysibm.sysversions
to get a history of DB2 sofware versions used with your database.
Regards
Frank
