iSeries Information Center
The V5R3 iSeries Information Center is available with tips, techniques,
scenarios, and technical information to help you take advantage of all of the
features of your iSeries server. From hardware specifications to wireless
management and EIM information, the iSeries Information Center is a prime
technical resource for your iSeries information needs.
See the
Basics section to find everything you need to get started if you are new to
iSeries. Find what you are looking for with advanced search functions. And use
advisors to identify considerations for your business’ network infrastructure. You
can use interactive finders to search over 2000 APIs and 1600 CL commands.
The Supplemental Library on Portable Document Format (PDF) is integrated with
the Information Center to provide a one-stop place to obtain technical
information. You can search the PDF and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)
files in one search at the Internet site. The iSeries Information Center is available
on the Internet at:
http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/infocenter
The iSeries Information Center is also provided on CD-ROM with iSeries
hardware and i5/OS and OS/400 orders. The CD-ROM includes a wizard to
install the iSeries Information Center to an intranet server from the iSeries server.
The wizard can even configure your HTTP server and setup search on the
intranet.

media or electronically, and then packaged and distributed to remote license
sites, either on media or electronically. Customers can download PTFs over the
Internet. The client hardware needed is a PC with Windows 95/NT, a TCP
connection to the iSeries over a LAN, and access to the Internet. Configuration
