We need new Installer which can support installing IIS with Db2 v12.1 directly

We are building an IIS environment with IIS v11.7.1.6 and Db2 v12.1.5.
I see that Db2 v12.1.5 is supported recently.
InfoSphere Information Server 11.7.1.6 Service Pack 3 Announcement

How to upgrade Db2 11.5 to version 12.1 for IBM InfoSphere Information Server 11.7.1.6

When installing IIS, error such as "only support Db2 v11.5" occured.
I have to build this environment as:
  1.install Db2 11.5.x
  2.install IIS v11.7.1.6
  3.install IIS v11.7.1.6 service pack 3
  4.update Db2 v11.5.x to v12.1.5
  5.setup IIS with new Db2 v12.1.5
(This is so weird...)

We need a new installer that can install IIS with Db2 v12.1 directly.
