• Install a licensed program with the Restore Licensed Program command
  The programs listed in the Install Licensed Programs display are those supported by the LICPGM installation when your server was new. Occasionally, new programs become available which are not listed as licensed programs on your server. If this is the case with the program you want to install, you must use the Restore Licensed Program (RSTLICPGM) command to install it.
• Support for multiple Java 2 Software Development Kits
  Your iSeries server supports multiple versions of the Java Development Kits (JDKs) and the Java 2 Software Development Kit (J2SDK), Standard Edition.
• Install extensions for the IBM Developer Kit for Java
  Extensions are packages of Java classes that you can use to extend the functionality of the core platform. Extensions are packaged in one or more ZIP files or JAR files, and are loaded into the Java virtual machine by an extension class loader.
