The
shared
resources directory is where product resources are installed
so that they can be used by multiple product package groups. You define
the shared resources directory the first time that you install IBM Installation Manager . For best
results, use your largest disk drive for shared resources directories.
You cannot change the directory location unless you uninstall Installation
Manager.
Important: When you install products on the Windows Vista operating system, do not create
the shared resources directory in the Program Files directory (C:\Program
Files\). If you create a package group in that directory,
users who do not have administrator privileges cannot use the product.
