/opt/dbtutools tree

The /opt/dbtutools tree (per default C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\ under Windows) is the elementary basis for the entire DbtuTools framework. It is the central location for all binaries, batch-, configuration-, log files etc. (containing one subtree per DB2 instance name).

 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\

 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst1\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst1\tools\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst1\tools\bin\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst1\tools\cfg\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst1\tools\doc\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst1\tools\log\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst1\tools\temp\

 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst2\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst2\tools\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst2\tools\bin\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst2\tools\cfg\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst2\tools\doc\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst2\tools\log\
 <DIR> C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\db2inst2\tools\temp\

Sample output of a fictitious dir (in a scenario with two DB2 instances - named db2inst1 and db2inst2)

The C:\Program Files\DbtuTools\ directory acts as a root node housing the following files and subtrees:

The dbtuswitch.bat batch file [more] and its configuration file dbtuswitch.cfg [more].
The subtree for each DB2 instance making use of the DbtuTools framework.

Each subtree is based on the same hierarchic structure:

Directory	Content
`...\INSTANCE\tools\bin\`	This directory contains all binaries (binaries, batch files and JAR files).
`...\INSTANCE\tools\cfg\`	This directory contains all configuration files.
`...\INSTANCE\tools\doc\`	This directory contains the DbtuTools framework documentation.
`...\INSTANCE\tools\log\`	This directory contains all logfiles.
`...\INSTANCE\tools\temp\`	This directory contains all temporary files.
