    ****************************************************************
    Using the IBM Installation Manager UPDATEALL feature on
    Linux to update WAS 8.0 to 8.0.0.1 with all ifixes, the user
    expected all ifixes to be applied to the jar file.  Instead
    only some ifixes are applied to the jar file (i.e. the jar
    file does not get all the changes from the ifixes),
    

Problem conclusion

  • The UPDATEALL defect was a problem in the WAS iFixes and not
    with the IBM Installation Manager.   There is no change in
    the IBM Installation Manager.  For more information about
    the changes made in the WAS iFixes, see APAR PM53068.
