IBM DB2 Universal Database V6.1 Fundamentals
This course will provide both database administrators and application developers with the broad
foundation skills and knowledge needed to be successful with IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) V6.1 in a UNIX, Windows, or OS/2 environment. This course will teach students the
basic concepts of DB2 UDB V6.1, creating and accessing database objects, basic Structured Query Language (SQL), and managing databases.
Learn To
• Identify DB2 UDB product editions, their installation and verification, user interfaces, and security features.
• Create and access DB2 database objects, ensure data validation and integrity, and create views and indexes.
• Master basic Structure Query Language (SQL).
• Manage database operations.

• Create a view with specific characteristics.
• Create an index with specific characteristics.
• Identify the effects of table check constraints given a CREATE table statement.
• Identify characteristics of a trigger.
• Analyze data modification instructions to determine whether DB2 applies referential constraints given referential constraint definitions.
Unit 3: Basic Structured Query Language Usage
• Display data using a SELECT statement.
• Specify rows to be retrieved from a table given certain requirements.
• Apply DB2 functions to groups within a table for a given scenario.
• Retrieve data from multiple tables given a scenario.
• Enter data into a table using an INSERT statement.
• Modify data in a table using an UPDATE statement.
• Remove data from a table using a DELETE statement.
• Identify considerations in embedding SQL in applications for DB2.
• Sequence the steps to prepare to run an application program.
