APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• multiple doc issues related to the QCI 3.5.1 install procedure
  
  - The updated QCI installation document is not yet in the Info
  Center for customers to access.
  The updated install document is currently a PDF file located in
  this technote:
  http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21646019
  
  - Step 13 on page 4 of the above mentioned PDF file should
  explicitly state whether the groups required here can be domain
  groups or if they have to be groups local to the QCI server. We
  have a customer who was having issues with this but they say
  they were able to fill in the 'Group Name' option during the
  install with a domain group but had to use a local group for the
  'Admin Group Name'. So please can we get some clarity in the
  documentation on whether each of these groups need to be
  local/domain or can be either?
  
  - The same step 13 on page 4 of the above mentioned doc says
  'enter the name of a QCI Administrator group with the necessary
  privileges to perform administrative operations in the
  administration console'
  The documentation at some point should explain what these
  'administrative operations in the administration console' are.
  
  - Perhaps there should be a brief line about why we now require
  these two groups? Existing QCI users who are upgrading can
  easily be confused about why there is a sudden need for two
  groups when you always just needed one group.
