<h1 class="topictitle1">Installation methods for the target systems</h1>
<div><p><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Automatic installation and manual installation are
the two methods for installing the distribution media at the target systems.
To help you decide which installation method to choose, review this information.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span></p>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Automatic installation</dt>
<dd>Automatic installation means that the target system operators simply load
distribution media as prompted. This method is the most commonly used because
it allows you to use installation profiles and a user-defined installation
program. <p>You can use an installation profile to install media containing
licensed programs, fixes (PTFs), and application programs. Installation profiles
eliminate additional tasks for the target system operators and allow you to
customize the installation process.</p>
<p>You may want to write a user-defined
installation program to distribute customer-written applications and eliminate
additional tasks for the target system operators.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Manual installation</dt>
<dd>Use manual installation only if you need to add disk storage to the target
systems.</dd>
