<div><p>The system determines the type of installation process it uses
based on available system resources and the type of product being installed.</p>
<div class="section"><p>A <em>single-process installation</em> is when licensed programs
are installed one at a time (sequentially). A <em>multiprocess installation</em> is
when the system starts multiple jobs to perform the installation of two or
more licensed programs at the same time.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p><span class="keyword">Licensed Internal Code</span> and the
base part of the operating system are always installed
using single-process installation. Licensed programs (including libraries
QGPL and QUSRSYS and optional parts of the operating system) can be installed
using either single-process or multiprocess installation.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>If you are installing only one licensed program, the system uses
single-process installation. If you are installing more than one licensed
program, multiprocess installation is used if system resources are available.
If system resources are not available, single-process installation is used.
A single-process installation is used when a system's main storage or auxiliary
storage is limited and when a licensed program exceeds the requirements for
multiprocess installation. For any set of licensed programs, if the system
must use single-process installation, the installation takes longer. </p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p id="installprocess__multov"><a name="installprocess__multov"><!-- --></a><strong>Multiprocess installation</strong></p>
</div>
<div class="section"><div class="p">The operating system determines if your system configuration has
enough system capacity to use multiprocess installation to install licensed
programs. If your system has the required resources, the licensed programs
are installed concurrently by doing the following tasks: <ul><li>Loading the licensed program installation files from the media to temporary
save files.</li>
<li>Using multiple batch jobs to concurrently install licensed programs from
the save files. The save files are deleted during the installation process
when they are no longer needed.</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section"><div class="p">During installation, a status panel indicates the licensed programs
that are currently being installed from save files. The display lists the
licensed programs and the type of item being installed for each, as follows:
<dl><dt class="dlterm">*PGM</dt>
<dd>Program objects</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">*LNG</dt>
<dd>Language objects</dd>
</dl>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>If your system does not have the required resources for <span>a
multiprocess installation</span>, the licensed programs are installed sequentially
from the installation media (single-process). <span>In single-process installation,</span> the
status panel indicates the licensed program that is currently being installed
from the media.</p>
