IBM UrbanCode Deploy - Upgrading - Don't forget the database

So I'm upgrading my UCD installation, from 6.2.6.1.940532 to 6.2.7.0.951830, using the provided script install-server.sh as per this: -

….
     [echo] Installing IBM UrbanCode Deploy version 6.2.7.0.951830
     [echo] A previous version (6.2.6.1.940532) exists in the specified directory. Do you want to upgrade the currently installed version? Y,n [Default Y]

Guess what I forgot to do ?

Yep, having rebooted this VM, I forgot to start DB2: -

su - db2inst1
db2start

Having done that, quelle surprise, the upgrade just worked …
