Can't Partition Unallocated Disk

Having more than 2 TB of disk space but can only create a partition up to the size of 2 TB ? The rest remain as  “ Unallocated Disk “ & no matter what, the options are blur out making partitioning impossible.

Converting the DISK to GPT format resolved the problem (right mouse click on DISK, choose Convert to GPT Disk).

DB2 Fix Pack Lists

The good about DB2 Fix Packs, there’s no need to follow Fix Pack sequence. Eg, DB2 v9.1 last supported fix is Fix Pack 12. It contains the cumulative fixes of prior versions. Instead of having to apply earlier Fix Packs, the latest one can be used. However, do check on the requirement listed in latest Fix Pack prior to installation.
