The QMF NLF program directory contains information concerning the material and procedures associated with the installation of QMF. Because the program directory is updated between releases of QMF, it may contain useful information, including a description of PTFs and APARs, as well as modifications to this book. The program directory contains all the steps for installing QMF NLF from tape to disk and building the DCSS. Only the QMF NLF database installation into DB2 for VM is described in this book. You must complete the steps in the program directory before doing the installation steps in this book.
