Introduction
These pages provide information on the installation of Stonebranch Inc's Workload Automation 5 on the IBM i operating system. Unless otherwise specified, all references to Workload Automation 5 for IBM i in these pages refer to version 5.1.1.
All Workload Automation 5 for IBM i components are provided in an easily installed, one-time installation package.

Installation Summary
Warning
This installation procedure is intended only for default installations into simple environments. Installing into high availability environments may require a customized installation. For customized installation, parallel installation or multiple system roll out see the Installation Guide for IBM i.
Step 1 | Download the distribution file from the Stonebranch Customer Portal to a computer running a supported version of Windows or UNIX. |
|---|---|
Step 2 | Extract the Licensed Program Save File from the distribution file. |
Step 3 | If transferring the installation file to the native, QSYS file system, create a save file, UNV511, on the target IBM I system in library QGPL. This step is not necessary if transferring the file to the IFS. |
Step 4 | FTP the Licensed Program Save File to either the save file created in step 1 or to /QSYS.LIB/QGPL.LIB/UNV511.SAVF. |
Step 5 | Execute the command RSTLICPGM to install Workload Automation 5 to the default libraries. Refer to Installation Procedures for additional parameters for the RSTLICPGM command. |
Step 6 | Verify the correctness of the install by executing the following command: CHKPRDOPT 0UNV511. |
Step 7 | Optionally, rename the UNVUBR511 subsystem to UBROKER for consistent operation across future installations. |
Naming Conventions
In Workload Automation 5 for IBM i, some library names and object names include a vrm (version, release, and modification) suffix, 511. This vrm suffix will change, as appropriate, for subsequent releases.
Additionally, some library names can be changed. These pages use the default names for these libraries:
- UNVPRD511 (product library)
- UNVTMP511 (temporary library)
- UNVSPL511 (spool file library)
- UNVCMDREF (command reference library)
You can change the UNVPRD511, UNVTMP511, and UNVSPL511 library names at installation time.
You can change UNVCMDREF only via the Universal Command Server configuration file.
