Verifying user profiles and checking cross-reference files

The IBM® i installation process requires that the QSECOFR and QLPINSTALL user profiles exist in the system distribution directory. The process also requires that all database cross-reference files are not in error before the installation process begins.

The following procedure adds the QSECOFR and QLPINSTALL user profiles if you have deleted them from the system distribution directory. It also checks for errors in database cross-reference files on your system.

  1. Type GO LICPGM at the IBM i command line and press Enter. The Work with Licensed Programs menu appears.
  2. Type 5 (Prepare for Install) and press Enter. The Prepare for Install display appears.
  3. Select the option to verify system objects and press Enter. The system verifies the system directory entries and adds the QSECOFR and QLPINSTALL user profiles if necessary. Database cross-reference files are checked for errors.
  4. If the database cross-reference files are in error, you see message CPI3DA3. Follow the instructions of this message to resolve the errors before you continue.
  5. If the database cross-reference files are not in error, you see a completion message. Press F3 (Exit) to return to the Work with Licensed Programs menu.
