  • 1.  iNavigator _ ACS

    Posted 10/02/24 12:20 PM

    Is there an equivalent to IBM i Access for Windows I Navigator for IBM i Access Client Solutions?

    When we used to install IBM i Access for Windows  > System I Navigator was installed by default. I am not finding that to be true with ACS install.

    Thank you

    Dear Jim,

    It is a web based Navigator for i which was released by IBM in September 2021.  If you want to access IBM Navigator for i you can access it using below link. Please make sure that admin server is up and running under QHTTPSVR subsystem, specially admin1 job which is used by this new navigator. It is also recommended to install latest http group ptf's before using it.

    URL:  http://hostname:2001 OR http://hostname:2002/Navigator.  

    If running TLS, use the default URLs:  https://hostname:2010 OR   https://hostname:2003/Navigator.

    Back in the time of IBM i Access for Windows, System i Navigator was not yet designed to be accessible with a URL from a web browser because it was designed as a Windows application running in the client PC.   Nowadays, you access Navigator for i from a web browser as it runs as a server-side Java application, not a Window application any more..
