<div><p><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />You can use either <span class="keyword">iSeries™ Navigator</span> or
central site distribution to distribute software. The quantity and type of
software that you want to distribute determines which distribution tool you
should use.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span></p>
<p><strong>When to use <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span></strong></p>
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" /><span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span> allows
you to logically group a number of programs and files on a source i5/OS server
and distribute those objects to one or more target <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> servers.
It is the quickest and most efficient way to distribute one or more licensed
programs, your own software products, fixes, or user libraries. <img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
<p><strong>When to use central site distribution</strong></p>
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Central site distribution is most often used to distribute the
software involved in a full system upgrade or the software of a logical partition.
This usually includes a collection of software such as the <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span> operating
system, program temporary fixes (PTFs), IBM<sup>®</sup> licensed programs, non-IBM licensed
programs, and user libraries. You can also use central site distribution to
distribute the software of a logical partition to several servers that might
or might not be partitioned.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
