Install MQ

There are three stages to an install:

This topic describes the first two stages, see the next topic for the third.

We can install only one instance of WebSphere MQ for iSeries™ in each partition of your server.

Sign on to the system with a user profile that has *ALLOBJ special authority, for example QSECOFR.
To install the WebSphere MQ for iSeries, V6.0 base product and primary language, issue the command:
```
RSTLICPGM LICPGM(5724H72) DEV(install device) OPTION(*BASE) OUTPUT(*PRINT)
```
where:
- 5724H72 is the product identifier for WebSphere MQ for iSeries, V6.0
- install device is the device from which the product is to be loaded, typically a CD, for example, OPT01.
- unspecified parameters revert to defaults, which will include RSTOBJ(* ALL) - this means that the command will install both MQ and the language files for the primary language of your computer. For installing additional languages see Installing translated versions.
During the installation, the license agreement is displayed for you to accept. (See License requirements).

To install the sample applications issue the command:

RSTLICPGM LICPGM(5724H72) DEV(install device) OPTION(1) OUTPUT(*PRINT)

If installation of WebSphere MQ fails, remove MQ before attempting to reinstall. To do this:

To delete installed options, use DLTLICPGM with OPTION(*ALL)
To delete partially-installed options, delete the QMQM library (and the QMQMSAMP and QMQMJAVA libraries if necessary)
Delete the IFS directory /QIBM/ProdData/mqm and its subdirectories. To delete the IFS directories, use the EDTF command, for example:
```
  EDTF STMF('/QIBM/ProdData')
```
and select option 9 for the mqm directory.
