FIRST release of the new version of IBM Navigator for i |
For information on the heritage IBM Navigator for i PTFs, see heritage Navigator PTFs.
Steps to apply IBM Navigator for i PTFs:
Note: It is recommended to install the latest HTTP group instead of just the latest Navigator for i PTF (or two PTFs for heritage Navigator).
Use of the HTTP Group requires a delayed apply and IPL. The following steps apply to single Navigator for i PTFs only and do not apply to use of the HTTP group.
1. Stop the ADMIN1 job before you apply the Navigator PTF with this command:
- > ENDTCPSVR SERVER(*IAS) INSTANCE(ADMIN1)
- The MONITOR service can be stopped with two methods:
- Using the GUI

-
- 2. Using command line:
- > CALL PGM(QSYSDIR/QNAVMNSRV) PARM(*STOP)
- 2. Using command line:
2. Apply or remove the PTFs (immediate mode).
3. Start the ADMIN1 job with this command:
> STRTCPSVR SERVER(*IAS) INSTANCE(ADMIN1)
5. Refresh (or reload) your browser after you apply the IBM Navigator for i PTFs.
- Clear the browser cache after applying new PTFs is not required
- A good time to refresh your browser is before you log in, on the login panel. Select the Reload or Refresh icon on your browser before you log in:
Log file information:
You can view the GUI log files from the Navigator GUI. Select the "Serviceability" icon and choose "View GUI Logs" to open a list of the files available:

The Navigator for i
- Server-side log file: /qibm/UserData/OS/AdminInst/admin1/wlp/usr/servers/admin1/logs/messages.log
- Browser log file: Generate a browser console log file for service
Monitor log file information is detailed at the end of the Monitors Overview page. The file location is:
- /QIBM/UserData/OS400/Navigator/config/MONITOR
- Note: the monitor log needs to be pulled from the managed/target node (not the managing/GUI node)
Instructions to stop and restart monitors manually:
> CALL PGM(QSYSDIR/QNAVMNSRV) PARM(*STOP)
> QSYS/SBMJOB CMD(CALL PGM(QSYSDIR/QNAVMNSRV) PARM(*START)) JOB(QNAVMNSRV) JOBD(QGPL/QDFTSVR) JOBQ(QSYS/QSYSNOMAX) OUTQ(*CURRENT) USER(QWEBADMIN) CURLIB(*CRTDFT) INLLIBL(*JOBD) INLASPGRP(*JOBD) CCSID(37) CPYENVVAR(*YES)
