As more and more development teams embrace Open Source technologies on the IBM i, it will be important that Systems Administrators know the basics of managing these packages on the IBM i. This session will predominantly look at the Open Source Package Management capabilities included with IBM i Access Client Solutions as the go to environment for those who are not themselves using the Open Source packages, but will also cover the Shell YUM commands that can also be used by more advanced users to manage packages.  We will also discuss approaches to managing this environment in various secured network environments, and general recommendations on updating individual packages.

Learning Objectives:
As a Systems Administrator, or other responsible party, become familiar and proficient with Open Source Package Management on IBM i.
