Checking your user profile using commands

About this task

The system security officer has the required authorities to install and configure Domino. If you are not the security officer, use the Display User Profile (DSPUSRPRF) command to determine if your user profile has the required authorities.

If your user profile does not have the required authorities, ask the security officer to either do the installation and configuration or to add the required authorities to your user profile.

To check your user profile, follow these steps:

Procedure

1. At any command prompt, type the following command and then press Enter:

DSPUSRPRF

user-id

where user-id is the name of your user profile.

2. Press the PAGE DOWN key and locate the special authority field to display the special authorities for the user profile.

If your user profile does not have the required authorities, ask the security officer to either do the installation and configuration or to add the required authorities to your user profile.

Installing the Domino server on IBM i and configuring the server after install

About this task

There are several ways you can begin the installation of the Domino software. Each way provides a slightly different experience, but all accomplish the same tasks. You can install the Domino software using any of the following methods:

Run the SETUP.EXE file from the product media (DVD or Web). This method allows the product media to be located in either the workstation or the optical drive of the IBM i system.
Use the LODRUN command from the IBM i command interface. This method requires that the physical media be located in the optical drive of IBM i system.
Use RSTLICPGM commands to install each option from saved files.

After you complete the installation, you can configure a new Domino server by launching the Domino Server Setup wizard (domwzd.exe) on a workstation that has Microsoft™ Windows™ installed or use the CFGDOMSVR command on the IBM i system. To upgrade a Domino server to the new release, use the UPDDOMSVR command.

For details about installing a new release of Domino and upgrading servers on IBM i, including command examples, see the Tech Note Domino 9.0 for i: Installation and Upgrade.
