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)
4. It is highly recommended to clear the browser cache after applying new PTFs. It is not required.
5. Refresh (or reload) your browser after you apply the IBM Navigator for i PTFs.
- 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:
