Are fixes cumulative?

Typically, APARs are not cumulative, because each APAR corresponds to fixes for a subset of Java5_64 filesets. Different APARs can have different subsets of Java5_64 filesets. However, the individual Java5_64 filesets will contain cumulative fixes. Check the version.release.modification.fix (vrmf) number to compare fileset levels. For example, the fixes in fileset 5.0.0.225 contain or supercede the fixes delivered in fileset 5.0.0.210 and below.

How do I know if I have installed the latest code?

There are different ways to determine the level of code on your system:

  • You can check and compare the build date of your Java installation by using the command: /usr/java5_64/jre/bin/java -fullversion
  • You can check to see if a particular APAR is installed on your system by using the command: instfix -ivk APAR_NUMBER
  • You can check the Java5_64 filesets installed on your system by using the command: lslpp -L | grep Java5_64. The list produced by this command might show filesets that are optional, such as java5_64.samples or java5_64.source. The java5_64.sdk fileset is the only fileset you need.
