   Confirm replacing the folder, if you are asked.

4. Restart the information center Windows service by selecting Start->Programs->IBM Data Management QPP Information Center->Service->IC Server Service Startup.

After you install the update, perform a search to ensure that the information center is properly set up for your users. To perform a search, complete the following steps:

Installation Notes

After you update the information center, you should clear any temporary Internet files (clear the cache) and clear the history in your browser. If you do not know how to do these tasks, refer to the Help for your browser.

If the users of your information center encounter problems viewing the updated information, they should also clear the temporary Internet files (cache) and history from their browsers.
