Is there anyway to restore a db2 database whose backup was made in Windows XP , to a linux machine ?
I am using the same version of db2 on both the OSes -> DB2 Express-C 9.7
Source OS : Windows XP SP2
Target OS : Ubuntu 9.04
Linux – Restore DB2 database

IBM has documentations for this scenario. See this page on DeveloperWorks: Using DB2 utilities to clone databases across different platforms
I've used already a similar procedure (involving db2move) to transfer a DB2 database from Windows to AIX and vice-versa.
