How can I migrate Oracle 7.1 Unix to IBM DB2 very easy
 
Easy ? Good luck.

1) Export the Oracle database to flat files
2) Import the data into DB2

Details on how to do this ? Can't supply that one.

If it's consulting help you need, my company specializes in these migrations. We have tools to handle not only the data but also the stored procedures, triggers, etc. Automation is about 80%. See us at
 
The utility program nxtract converts oracle dump files to a format that DB2 reads.

use google to find the details on nxtract.
 
Your migration will be easier if you try the following steps:
- export your data of your tables to flat files;
- pay attention to date format: convert these dates into char format that db2 understands: it will be easier to do that if you use views to perform this conversion when exporting the data to flat files.
