DB2 Personal Developer Edition and Spatial Extender

To DB2 Personal Developer Edition GIS users:
How do I acquire a spatial extender license key for the DB2 PDE? I
expected to be able to use it right out of the box.

Known issue. I'll ask how that is handled and get back to you.
One option for you may be to use the DB2 Express-C edition.

I don't believe that DB2 Express-C edition supports any of the extenders
(but not 100% sure about spatial). |

I got some answers...
You can simply download the DB2 Spatial Extender for DB2 Express package
from the SE website and install that package on a PDE system. You will
find that package under the "DB2 Spatial Extender Trial Download" link in
the lower right corner of this site:
http://www-306.ibm.com/software/data/spatial/
(Don't ask why the link carries the word "Trial"; nobody seems to know
that  )

Actually, you should be able to do so:
http://www-306.ibm.com/software/data/db2/udb/edition-pde.html
That brings us to the question which error message you saw and what did you
do to trigger it.

spatial extender advertised to be included here:

4 Create and start the database (i.e. GISTEST)
5 Right click on the database name
6 select spatial extender/enable
