(Display log for messages). Press Enter. - The Display Install History display appears. Press Enter.
- The Display History Log Contents display appears. Look at the
messages to determine the installation status of the licensed programs
and PTFs. The messages show what part of the licensed program installation
function has failed. Areas where the failure could have occurred
include the following:
- Installing the IBM-supplied libraries
- Installing the licensed programs
- Installing PTFs
- Installing a secondary language
- Initialization process
If a problem such as a power failure occurs during a process in the preceding list, you could see a message that the process has started. An example of such a message is
Licensed program installation process started
. However, the failed or completed status message might not be displayed. - There should be one or more messages that indicate which IBM-supplied library or licensed program failed. Be sure to look at all of the messages. Use F10 (Display all) to see all messages.
- To see the online help information, move the cursor to the message and press the Help key. Look at the online help information for the error message to get the message identifier and more information about the cause and recovery for the failure. Go to the error messages table in this topic to review the list of possible messages that you could see.
- A copy of the job log has been spooled to an output queue.
To locate and display the job log, enter one of the following Work with Spool File (WRKSPLF) commands:
- For automatic installation, type the following command and press Enter: WRKSPLF SELECT(QLPAUTO) ASTLVL(*INTERMED)
- For manual installation, type the following command and press Enter: WRKSPLF SELECT(QSECOFR) ASTLVL(*INTERMED)
- For the PTF process, type the following command and press Enter: WRKJOB JOB(000000/QSYS/SCPF) then select option 10 to view the job log.
If the bottom of the display shows More..., page down (Roll up) until Bottom... appears. Select option 5 (5=Display) on the last entry.Note: Ignore any error messages listed in the nnnnnn/QSYS/QLPINSTALL job log. These messages are not installation error messages.Scan the job log for error messages. Determine the cause and recovery for each error message in the job log. Go to the error messages table in this topic for a list of possible messages that you might see. Be sure to scan the entire job log. There could be more than one failure. Scan the job log by using the message ID. Remember that the message ID is case-sensitive.
- Select option 10 (Display installed licensed programs) on the
Work with Licensed Programs display. The Installed Status column indicates
which licensed programs and optional parts are installed. The Installed
Status column also indicates whether each licensed program installed
successfully and whether it is compatible with the installed operating
system. Refer to Installed status values for
a description of the installed status values.
You can press the F11 key to see a view of the display that shows the Installed Release column. The version, release, and modification value appears for licensed programs that are either installed compatibly or are installed at a back level. Page down (Roll up) through all of the displays to see the status of your licensed programs.
Check to see if the licensed program that you are installing had a different language feature code than your primary language feature code. If it does, the licensed program either is flagged as *ERROR or the column is blank. The language objects for the licensed program are installed in a secondary language library. Obtain distribution media with the correct primary language feature code. Press the F3 key to return to the Work with Licensed Programs menu.
- After you determine the cause of the error and complete the recommended recovery action, resume the installation process. If you were using automatic installation, go to Starting the automatic installation process again. If you were using the manual installation process, go to Starting the manual installation process again.
The following table contains some of the error messages with possible causes of the errors. Look at the messages on your system to determine the exact cause and recovery.

steps:
|
CPF3DC1 | Cause: Directory objects for product 5770SS1 option *BASE release V7R1M0 failed to install. The system will not install library QGPL and will not allow licensed programs to be installed until the directory objects have been installed. Recovery: See previous messages in the job log to determine the cause of the failure. Correct the errors |
CPF3DC2 | Cause: Required user library cannot be installed. The system will not install library QGPL and will not allow licensed programs to be installed because the operating system directory installation was not successful. Recovery:Examine the history log for errors that occurred while operating system directories were being installed. Correct the errors. |
