If you have a pre-compiled module, then I think your problem is the absence
of DB2 Connect (IIRC) or its equivalent.

The basic connectivity requirement for DBD::DB2 on all platforms is
the DB2 Runtime Client.

If you're compiling DBD::DB2 yourself, then you need the DB2
Application Development Client instead (to get the headers required
for the compile).

Both of these are a free download from
http://ibm.com/db2/udb/support/downloadv8.html.

DB2 Connect (which isn't free) is only required if you are connecting
to zSeries or iSeries servers.
