for System z 8.0 beta 3.

Manager 1.4.1.

Manager:
This software is automatically installed before Rational Developer for System z.
- If you have an old version of IBM Installation
Manager:
In the Install packages page of IBM Installation Manager, an error
message at the bottom of the page informs you that the Rational Developer for System z V8.0 beta 3 package is not compatible
with the IBM Installation Manager
version currently executed. Nevertheless, select the box located in
front of Rational Developer

3. An update of IBM Installation
Manager is then automatically proposed. Accept it. The new version
of IBM Installation Manager
is then installed, before Rational Developer
for System z V8.0 beta
3.
