You can reinstall the product and use the existing DB2
Express database, if you did not remove it when you uninstalled other
product components. This scenario gives you access to your existing
Build Forge projects and job logs.
Before you start Installation Manager, use the check list in the
following steps to obtain the required DB2 Express information.
Important: If you have configured the system to use HTTPS and
SSL, you need to back up your certificates in <bfinstall>/keystore and <bfinstall>/bfclient.conf (where
the certificate password is stored). On UNIX and Linux systems the
directories are in <bfinstall>/Platform.
