The easiest way to "fix" this that I can think of is:

1) create a new zFS filesystem using your favorite method

2) mkdir /new-db2 #or whatever root-resident directory

3) mount the new zFS filesystem at the directory in #2

4) Issue the UNIX commands:

cd /db2 #current DB2 directory
pax -pe -M -rw . /new-db2
# double check the pax command for me, somebody!

5) on z/OS 1.9, mount the new zFS as the DB2 mountpoint.

Do the same with the Java subdirectory. Is Java still orderable stand-alone?
Or maybe downloadable from the Web?
