Install the 32-bit library that includes libstdc++.so.5

yum install compat-libstdc++-33

Validate that DB2 is now mostly happy

WARNING:
DBT3534W  The db2prereqcheck utility determined that ASLR is set to ON and that this could cause issues with some tools.
WARNING: 
   The 32-bit library file libpam.so is not found on the system. 

This is a known issue with older versions of DB2, as per this Technote: -

IC87092: DB2PREREQCHECK GIVES WARNING "THE 32-BIT LIBRARY FILE LIBPAM.SO IS NOT FOUND ON THE SYSTEM." WHEN THE REQUIRED LIBPAM.SO.0 EXIST

The "circumvention" is to do this: -

cd /lib

ln -s libpam.so.0 libpam.so

so we now get this: -

/media/ibm_db2/db2prereqcheck 

WARNING:
DBT3534W  The db2prereqcheck utility determined that ASLR is set to ON and that this could cause issues with some tools.

ERROR: Error during "install" phase:

So, whilst DB2 is OK, we've got to look at GSKIT.
