This chapter provides checklists that guide you through the steps for different types of software installs using the native user interface.
Product’s Installation Wizard recommended: These checklists and the installation procedures in this book (License Manager for IBM i Products) are considered secondary path procedures. It is strongly recommended that you use the product’s Installation Wizard to install products.
License Manager uses the same installation process for new installs, upgrades, and service packs. The naming convention reflects these in its V, U, and SP portions. During the installation process, all products in an installation library are refreshed.
Cumulative and restricted fixes provide changes to correct a specific problem and are released on an as-needed basis only. They do not refresh the entire product, and are reflected by the FX(R) portion of the naming convention. For related information, see Understanding product naming conventions .
