I gather you're looking to test on DB2.
After install, go to the first steps and you'll find you can create sample
databases for a simple db or for a datawarehouse.
It depends on what you install.
The sample db (called SAMPLE) can also get created from a command line by
opening a db2 command window and issuing: db2sampl Notice no"e" at the end.
If you want more serious testing there are tools that can be downloaded (
for a fee) to help you out.
HTH, Pierre.
