Modifying installed product packages

The Modify Packages wizard in the IBM® Installation Manager enables you to change the feature and language selections of an installed product package.

Before you begin

By default, Internet access is required unless the repository preferences points to a local update site. For more information, see the Installation Manager help.
Note: Close all programs that were installed using Installation Manager before modifying.

  4. On the Languages page, select the languages for the package group and click Next. The corresponding national language translations for the user interface and documentation for the packages are installed. Your choices apply to all packages installed under this package group.
