<h1 class="topictitle1">Set up your central system for the first time</h1>
<div><p>To start using iSeries™ Navigator, double-click the desktop icon
and select an iSeries server
to connect to and define an iSeries connection. The first server you specify
is assigned as your central system. Management Central appears automatically
at the top of the list in the left pane of your iSeries Navigator window. The Management
Central server is automatically started on the central system.</p>
<div class="section"><p>To access the distributed systems management functions of iSeries Navigator,
expand <span class="uicontrol">Management Central</span>.</p>
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />For systems running i5/OS™ V5R3 and later, the Management Central
databases are located in libraries QMGTC and QMGTC2. For systems running releases
earlier than i5/OS V5R3,
the Management Central databases are located in the QUSRSYS library.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
<div class="p"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />To complete an initialization, the Management Central sever requires
that QSECOFR is enabled and active. If you use a different profile name with
the same kind of authorization as QSECOF, you need to run the following command
on the central system.<blockquote><pre>CALL PGM(QSYS/QYPSCONFIG) PARM(QYPSJ_SYSTEM_ID 'XXXXX')</pre>
</blockquote>
(xxxxx
is a user ID other than the default of QSECOFR)<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></div>
<div class="p"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />In some cases,
the central system might have multiple IP addresses by which it can be accessed
(CFGTCP option 10). You can use a ping command on the central system to display
the IP address that will be returned to Management Central. If this is not
the IP address that the clients use to connect to the system, you can override
the default IP address with the address that the ping command displayed. You
can use the following command to override the default IP address.<blockquote><pre>CALL PGM(QSYS/QYPSCONFIG) PARM(QYPS_HOSTNAME 'w.x.y.z')</pre>
</blockquote>
(w.x.y.z is the IP address that Management Central should use for connection
purposes)<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></div>
<div class="p">If your central system is running OS/400<sup>®</sup> V5R2
or later (or V5R1 with PTF SI06917), you can right-click <span class="uicontrol">Management
Central</span> and select <span class="uicontrol">Verify Connection</span> to
verify that the central system connection is configured properly. To see detailed
information about any Failed message, select the message and click <span class="uicontrol">Details</span> (or
double-click the message). <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> <img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />The
Verify Connection function only confirms that Management Central is working
properly on the central system. TCP/IP configuration and firewalls also might
prevent the Management Central client from successfully connecting to the
central system.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></div>
</div>

<div class="section"><p>For more information about these
and other Management Central tasks and topics, refer to the detailed task
help that is available from the iSeries Navigator window. Click <span class="uicontrol">Help</span> from
the menu bar and select <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">iSeries Navigator overview</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Management Central</span></span>.</p>
