Notes on logging and tracing:

• An easy way to view the logs is to open Installation Manager and go to File > View Log. An individual log file can be opened by selecting it in the table and then clicking the Open log file icon.

• Logs are located in the logs directory of Installation Manager's application data location. For example:

  • Administrative installation:

    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\IBM\Installation Manager\logs

  • Non-administrative installation:

    C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application Data\IBM\Installation Manager\logs

  • Administrative installation:
    /var/ibm/InstallationManager/logs

  • Non-administrative installation:
    user_home/var/ibm/InstallationManager/logs

• The main log files are time-stamped XML files in the logs directory, and they can be viewed using any standard web browser.

• The log.properties file in the logs directory specifies the level of logging or tracing that Installation Manager uses.

Notes on troubleshooting:

• By default, some HP-UX systems are configured to not use DNS to resolve host names. This could result in Installation Manager not being able to connect to an external repository.

  You can ping the repository, but nslookup does not return anything.

  Work with the system administrator to configure the machine to use DNS, or use the IP address of the repository.

• For more information on using Installation Manager, read the IBM Installation Manager Information Center.

  Read the release notes to learn more about the latest version of Installation Manager. To access the release notes, complete the following task:
