Symptom
You're uninstalling Db2 using 'db2_deinstall -a' and observe the following error:
===================================================
ERROR: The DB2 installer detects the DAS is using the current DB2 copy to be
uninstalled. The deinstallation process cannot continue. If the deinstallation
is moving up or down a DB2 level from the current DB2 installation, you need to
use the installFixPack command from the DB2 images of the desired DB2 Level to
update the current DB2 installation. If the purpose is to uninstall a DB2
product from the current location with no desire to install it again to the
same location, you need to drop the DAS or update the DAS to use another DB2
installation location of the same version and then rerun the command again to
uninstall.
