Installing the Software

• If no previous installations of TIBCO EMS Client for IBM i are present on the system, you can follow one path of the RSTLICPGM command to install the software.

  For more information, see Performing Single Installation.

• If a previous installation of TIBCO EMS Client for IBM i exists on the target system, you must be careful about which parameters you specify with the RSTLICPGM command.

  For more information, see Performing Multiple Installation.

Following either the single or multiple installation paths also results in components being installed in the IFS file system in a directory referred to as EMI_HOME. The value of EMI_HOME depends on the product release. For the 8.5.0 release, the value of EMI_HOME is /usr/tibco/tibems/8.5.0.

Dynamic Naming

TIBCO EMS Client for IBM i supports dynamic naming, which means that you can install the product into a unique user-chosen product library name.

To install TIBCO EMS Client for IBM i using an alternate product library name, specify the LIB parameter in the RSTLICPGM command. For example:

RSTLICPGM LICPGM(4TIBEM4) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(savflib/TIBEMSvrm) LIB(prodlib)

where savflib is the library name where the product save file was uploaded.

In the example, the EMS client is installed into the prodlib library instead of the default product library, which is TIBEMSLIB. The LIB parameter is optional, and if not specified, the EMS client is installed in the TIBEMSLIB library.
