Domino for System i
Domino installation may fail with signature violation on i 5/OS
Domino and OS/400 signatures
When installing Domino 8 for System i, the installation may fail with the following error message (check
the job log for the job that issued the RSTLICPGM command):
Object has a signature that is no longer valid.
This is likely the result of installing Domino to a system that has the more stringent levels of object
signature validation enabled for restore operations.
The policy to be used for object signature verification during a restore operation (for example, product
installation) is controlled by the QVFYOBJRST system value, which has a default value of 3.
When installing Domino for System i, the system value QVFYOBJRST must be set to a value of 3 or lower
prior to installing Domino.
After installation of Domino has completed, the system value may be changed back to a more restrictive
setting.
An example of changing the system value QVFYOBJRST is provided below:
CHGSYSVAL SYSVAL(QVFYOBJRST) VALUE('1')
