TDI is necessary for Connections.
I could not launch the graphical install program from the launchpad.
I had to launch it like this
java install_tdiv611_setup.jar
Then it gave me these errors:
Error in copying /tmp/ismp001/9378174/data/faddba0181b51d9316ef30cc8eb4700d/6.1.1.0/resource.map there may not be enough space on device

Exception in thread "Thread-52" java.lang.VerifyError: class loading constraint violated (class: com/ibm/db2/jcc/c/o method: resetDB2Connection(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Lcom/ibm/db2/jcc/DB2BaseDataSource;)V) at pc: 0
I rebooted the machine and got rid of the DB2 error, thus allowing the wizard to initialize.
After selecting paths and options and the summary screen, the install failed with this error:
Exception in thread "Thread-184" java.lang.RuntimeException: Caught a runtime exception in TouchPointTask.run(). Error was: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org/apache/xerces/impl/dv/xs/DateTimeDV.parse(Ljava/lang/String;)[I
at com.ibm.ac.si.cm.TouchPointTask.run(TouchPointTask.java:991)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:797)
I checked the install directory and saw that lots of stuff was installed. With any luck, the error can be ignored.
Further research revealed that the error can indeed be ignored.

Development has confirmed that this message is coming from a component in the install tool, and cannot be suppressed. The message can be ignored.
Next step is to install fixpack 3 and ifix8.
ReadMe says this:
2) To install this fixpack you need to launch update installer using GMI tool, Default location for GMI tools is like this:
- For Windows GMI tool is available in C:\Program Files\IBM\Common\ci\gmi\bin
- For Unix GMI tool is available in /usr/ibm/common/ci/gmi/bin
Start GMI tool from applicable location, using “gmi” command.
Can’t find the GMI tool anywhere, neither on disk, nor on internet.
Can’t launch the install with the command “java TDI_MAIN_IU.jar” because the jar file has no manifest.
Seems like I’m stuck.
