Installing a new iSeries server
The first installation of a new iSeries server at the central site system or target site system usually involves
the service representative, who sets up and tests the hardware. (Some customers set up their systems.)
Before turning the system over to you, the service representative configures and tests the electronic
customer support. Also, a copy of the system configuration list is filed with Getting started with iSeries 400.
Language files for the target site system
The IBM licensed program distribution media contains the primary language files. The distribution media
you create at the central site system copies the primary language files so you can install them at your
target site systems.
Primary language for the target site system
When the distribution media are installed at the target site system, the primary language is the same as at
the central site system. The primary language is the language that is installed on the system as the default
language used to display and print information.
Secondary languages for the target site system
If you are distributing secondary languages to target site systems, do the following to make sure that
secondary languages are distributed:
1. Save the QSYS29xx library at the central site system by using the Save Library (SAVLIB) command.
Note: In the name of the library above, xx represents the
national language version feature code for the secondary
language.
2. Save the licensed programs at the central site system by using the Save Licensed Program
(SAVLICPGM) command, specifying 29xx for the LNG parameter.
For example:
SAVLICPGM LICPGM(5722WDS) DEV(TAP01) LNG(29xx)
OBJTYPE(*LNG) ENDOPT(*LEAVE)
There are several licensed programs that do not support secondary languages. Therefore, you do not
need to save the products on the following list at this time:

3. Restore the QSYS29xx library on the target site system by using the Restore Library (RSTLIB)
command.
