Instructions on how to complete a procedure

To run an Interactive installation:

  1. Download the installation package.
  2. Log on to the IBMi system with a user profile of *SECOFR user class with all special authorities.

  3. Create a SAVF in QGPL under the name ZSVRSAVF6. This can be done by running the following command:

 CRTSAVF FILE(QGPL/ZSVRSAVF6) TEXT(Zend Server product save file)

  1. Transfer the package by binary FTP to the SAVF ZSVRSAVF6 in QGPL. This can be done by executing the following steps:
    1. Verify that FTP is running on your IBM i system by running the following command and looking for 'FTP' or '21' in the Local Port column:

    NETSTAT *CNN

    1. Open a command prompt and change directory to the directory that contains the files you extracted from the ZIP file.
    2. Run the FTP command, specifying the name of your i5/OS system. e.g:

    ftp IBM i_system_name/TCP address

    1. If requested, enter a valid user profile and password.
    2. Enter the bin command to specify a binary transfer.
    3. Transfer the save file to the IBM i system by running the following command:

    put zsvrsavf6.savf

  1. When the SAVF is loaded into the IBM i QGPL library, return to your 5250 session and run the following command:

RSTLICPGM LICPGM(6ZSVRPI) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(QGPL/ZSVRSAVF6)

If the Group Profile IS defined:

  • QTMHHTTP user profile is not changed
  • Manually change the WEB_GROUP directive:
    1. Open the '/usr/local/zendsvr6/etc/zce.rc' file.
    2. Change the WEB_GROUP directive to <Group Profile name>.
