<p>iSeries Navigator
|

|
|
provides a powerful suite of functions to handle your system administration
|

tasks. Once you have installed iSeries Navigator, use the online help
|
||
|
|
for step-by-step instructions for all the individual tasks that you can do
|
||
|
|
"the GUI way" in iSeries Navigator.
|
||
|
|
In the main iSeries Navigator
|

|
|
window, just click <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Help</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Help
