Abstract: If you know DB2 Universal Database V8.1 and can perform intermediate to advanced level administrative tasks, you may benefit from becoming an IBM Certified Database Administrator. This series of six tutorials is designed to help you prepare for the DB2 UDB V8.1 for Linux, UNIX and Windows Database Administration (Exam 701) certification exam to attain the certification "IBM Certified Database Administrator - DB2 UDB V8.1 for Linux, UNIX and Windows." These tutorials provide a solid base for each section of the exam. However, you should not rely on these tutorials as your only preparation for the exam. After a quick registration, you can begin a tutorial. Each tutorial should take about an hour to complete. You can take the tutorials online, or download a PDF or zip file. If you don't already have a background in DB2 database administration, but are interested in learning more, you should instead begin with the DB2 UDB Family Fundamentals Certification (exam 700) Preparation tutorials. The Family Fundamentals tutorial series provides an introduction to SQL (Structured Query Language) and covers how DB2 Universal Database V8.1 is packaged and installed, how to create databases and database objects, and the basics of database security and transaction isolation.
