PASE for i
What is PASE?
IBM i PASE (Portable Application Solutions Environment) is a runtime environment on the IBM i operating system that allows users to run AIX (Advanced Interactive eXecutive) applications, including those that use the X11 graphical user interface, on the IBM i platform.
PASE for i is an optionally installable component of the operating system.
PASE for i is free of charge on all IBM i servers.
The build system operates with Unix and GNU tools nestled within PASE, so if PASE isn't already part of your digital toolkit, it's time to install it. Think of it as the secret sauce for your build system burger!
To install PASE for i on your system, follow these steps:
- On an IBM i command line, enter GO LICPGM
- Select 11 (Install licensed program).
- Select Option 33 (5770-SS1 - Portable Application Solutions Environment).
- Optional: Install additional locales.
The PASE for i product installs only the locale objects that are associated with the language features that you have installed on the IBM i operating system. If you need locales that are not included with the language features on your system, you need to order and install additional IBM i language features.
