About this task

This procedure describes starting the installation program in graphical mode. For multiple installations that use the same settings, you can install the module in silent mode by using a response file. To install the module, you use the installation program of IBM InfoSphere Information Server. For more information, see the IBM InfoSphere Information Server Planning, Installation, and Configuration Guide. IBM InfoSphere QualityStage Module for U.S. Address Certification is installed on the client tier and engine tier. The client tier can be installed on only Windows computers.

When you install an additional product or tier after you install InfoSphere Information Server, you use the InfoSphere Information Server suite installer. The suite installer and the Update Installer share certain files. Therefore, you must install the latest version of the Update Installer on the suite installer media before you use the suite installer. You install the latest version of the Update Installer so that the suite installer code matches the version of the Update Installer on your installation.
