To complete your IBM® i fix
installation, follow these procedures.
An IPL of the system is required to complete the installation
of PTFs.
If you are installing technology refresh PTFs at the
same time that you are installing fixes with technology refresh requisite
PTFs, you might be prompted to perform an additional normal IPL to
permanently apply the technology refresh PTFs. The additional IPL
might be required when installing a cumulative PTF package, a fix
group (such as the HIPER group), or fixes that have been downloaded electronically. If
an additional IPL is needed, PTF SI42445 has been applied, and you
are installing from a virtual optical device or save files (*SERVICE),
the second IPL is then performed automatically.
If an additional IPL is needed, and you are installing
from a physical optical device or tape device, you must perform an
IPL before completing the PTF installation process.
- If escape message CPF362E (IPL
required to complete PTF install processing ) is displayed,
do the following:
- End all jobs on the system and perform a normal mode
IPL to the B IPL source.
- When the Sign On display is shown, continue with Step 5: Verifying fix installation.
- If the Confirm IPL for Technology Refresh PTFs display
is shown, to complete the PTF installation process, do the following:
- Press F10 to end all jobs on the system and IPL the
system.
- When the Sign On display is shown, enter GO
PTF again with the same parameters.
- If you are installing from a tape or optical device,
mount the first volume in the PTF volume set.
After the IPL is complete, the subsequent PTF installation
process loads the remaining PTFs from the installation device and
sets the IPL action to apply the PTFs on the next IPL.
- If escape message CPF3615 (PTF install
processing failed ) and message CPF36BF (IPL
required for a technology refresh PTF) are displayed, to complete
the PTF installation process, do the following:
- End all jobs on the system and perform a normal mode
IPL to the B IPL source.
- When the Sign On display is shown, enter GO
PTF again with the same parameters.
- If you are installing from a tape or optical device,
mount the first volume in the PTF volume set.
After the IPL is complete, the subsequent PTF installation
process loads the remaining PTFs from the installation device and
sets the IPL action to apply the PTFs on the next IPL.
If you entered a Y (Yes) for the Automatic IPL option,
the system is IPLed automatically. After the IPL completes, the Sign
On display is shown and the new PTFs are active. Otherwise, if you
entered an N (No) for the Automatic IPL option, the display shows
the licensed programs for which PTFs are being loaded and marked to
be temporarily applied upon the next unattended IPL. When this procedure
completes, the Program Temporary Fix display is shown.
- If the Program Temporary Fix display is shown, end all
jobs on the system and perform a normal mode IPL to the B IPL source. After the IPL completes, the Sign On display is shown
and the new PTFs are active.
