You can use the IBM Installation Manager to install IBM applications on Windows, UNIX, or Linux environments from a single interface. You can install applications in either Graphical User Interface (GUI)-based mode or text-based mode.
You must install and launch Installation Manager as a normal user not as a root user. Before you begin installation, review the documentation for the IBM® Installation Manager. The Installation Manager has multiple installation and deployment scenarios, so read the documentation carefully and decide which scenario fits your needs before proceeding. The Installation Manager information center is available here.
