Installation of the MQSeries for AIX V5.1 client will fail if a file system
mounted as /usr/lpp/mqm is detected. If you are migrating from an earlier
version and a file system exists for this directory, you will need to do one of
the following things before installing the MQSeries for AIX V5.1 client. Either:
v Uninstall your existing MQSeries client, and either delete the file system or
move it to the new install path of /usr/mqm
or
v Move the old file system of /usr/lpp/mqm to the new installation path of
/usr/mqm and create a symbolic link from the old path to the new by
issuing the following command:
ln -s /usr/mqm /usr/lpp/mqm
If you uninstall your existing client and either delete or move your existing
file system, you can then install the MQSeries for AIX V5.1 client as described
in “Custom Installation” on page 61 or “Easy Installation” on page 60.
However, if you move the old file system to the new installation path, you
should then perform the migration installation described in “Migrating from
an Earlier Version of MQSeries for AIX” on page 62.
Note: If you have already symbolically linked a file system to /usr/lpp/mqm,
installation of the MQSeries for AIX V5.1 client will destroy the
contents of the file system and the symbolic link, leaving an empty file
system. If this happens, you are advised to uninstall your existing
MQSeries client and either delete the file system or relink it to the new
install path of /usr/mqm, before installing the MQSeries for AIX V5.1
client.
The installation process for the MQSeries for AIX V5.1 client creates a
symbolic link from the old install path (/usr/lpp/mqm) to the new install path
(/usr/mqm). Therefore any existing scripts or makefiles that reference the old
path are still valid.
Changing the National Language
The easy installation and the custom installation default to the national
language that was specified when your operating system was installed.
It is possible to install the MQSeries client software so that the online help
and messages are in another national language. Use SMIT as follows to install
the message catalog for another national language:
1. Type smit
2. Follow this sequence of windows:
