Several options and procedures are available to help you as your
install your product.
Before you begin the installation, read these topics and decide
how you will install the software and licenses.
Installing from the launchpad
The launchpad program provides you with a single location
to view release information and start the installation process.
Specifying the repository
A repository is a location for storing installation or update package
data. By default, IBM Installation Manager uses an embedded URL in each product
package to connect to a repository server through the Internet and search
for available install packages and new features. You can set these repository
locations on the Repositories page of the Preferences window. Your organization
might require you to redirect the repository to use intranet sites.
