System: XXXX Select one of the following:
Manual Install 1. Install all Preparation
5. Prepare for install Licensed Programs
10. Display installed licensed programs 11. Install licensed programs 12. Delete licensed programs 13. Save licensed programs
Type 11 (option 11. Install licensed programs), and press Enter. Please read the note below for an alternative to using option 11.
Note: If you want to install all licensed programs that are on the
distribution media, use Manual Install option 1, Install all, instead of using option 11. (See the Work with Licensed Programs display in the example above.) This will save time for the installation. Or, if you want most of the licensed programs on the media, then Manual Install option 1 is also the preferred choice. If you want most of the licensed programs and choose this method of installation, you will have to delete the extra unwanted licensed programs. The Manual Install display appears after selecting Manual Install option 1. Select option 2 (2=All products) on this display to install all of the licensed programs on the media. Then, continue with step 8 on page 97 of these instructions.
For more information about using Manual Install option 1, refer to
“Using Option 1. Install All” on page 161.
__ 5. The Install Licensed Programs display appears.
Page through the display to find the licensed programs you want. Type a 1 in the option column next to the licensed programs that you want to install.

Notes:
a. The libraries QGPL and QUSRSYS, and Extended Base Support (option 1) and Extended Base Directory Support (option 3) may be preselected. If you are adding additional (new) licensed programs or optional parts, these items may be installed already. They would be preselected only if they are in an error state.
b. A licensed program that you want to install might not appear on the Install Licensed Programs display. If a licensed program does not appear, you can add it by entering information into the blank fields at the top of the list.

When you are typing the product option, the system accepts only the following three values: *BASE, option number, or *ALL. A value of
*BASE will only install the base product of the associated product identifier. The product option number will only install the particular option of the associated product identifier. A value of *ALL will install the base product and all options of the associated product identifier.
Keep in mind, that the licensed programs that you add will appear on the list with only the product identifier. They will not list a descriptive name for the product. Also, you should check the documentation that came with the product to see whether there are any special instructions.

__ 10. The Work with Licensed Programs display appears on your console when the installation process is complete. One of the following messages appears on the bottom of the Work with Licensed Programs display:
Work withlicensed programs function not complete. Go to
“Appendix A. Recovery Procedures” on page 147 to determine the problem.
Work withlicensed programs function has completed.
__ 11. Verify your licensed programs’ installed status values and check for
compatibility. It is important to make sure all of your licensed programs are compatible with the operating system. You can determine a licensed
program’s compatibility by checking the installed status value.
Use LICPGM menu option 10, Display licensed programs, to see the release and installed status values of the installed licensed programs. If the
installed status value of a licensed program is *COMPATIBLE, it is ready for use. Below are the descriptions of the installed status values for
*COMPATIBLE, *INSTALLED, and *BACKLEVEL. More installed status value descriptions can be seen in Appendix E, “Installed status values” on page 211.
v *COMPATIBLE - The product is installed and its version, release, modification, and level is compatible with the installed level of the OS/400. You can use this program with the V4R5M0 OS/400.
v *INSTALLED - The product is installed, but may or may not be compatible with the installed OS/400. It cannot be determined if the licensed program on the media is compatible with the OS/400 or with the currently installed licensed program.
Note: Caution!Licensed programs that are now part of the single set will be listed on the display panel as *INSTALLED. You will need to verify that the release level of the licensed program is
compatible with the release level of OS/400. For IBM products, check the current release levels for licensed programs in the
“Licensed Product Table” on page 214. Or check with your software supplier before you use the licensed program.
Installing Software on a New AS/400 System with the Operating System Already Installed
v *BACKLEVEL - The product is installed, but its version, release,
modification and level is not compatible with the currently installed level of the OS/400. To correct this problem, install a current release of this product. And if you have secondary languages, install a new release of these languages, as well, by using Chapter 11 and LICPGM menu option 21.
Note: Caution!If you use a licensed program that is listed as
*BACKLEVEL, you run the risk of having an information mix up between release levels. Or, some portions of the licensed program may not work properly. An installed status value of
*COMPATIBLE is desired.
