Displaying properties of a fix

To display the information about your IBM® i fixes and fix groups, follow these procedures using IBM Navigator for i.

Information similar to what you see when you use the command interface is shown in IBM Navigator for i. For example, several properties pages exist to provide you with information about fixes similar to what is shown when you use the Display PTF (DSPPTF) command. You can view the fix ID, the associated product and release, the status, and whether or not a cover letter or save file exists on the system. In addition, you are shown any requisite fixes or dependent fixes. Finally, you can see the objects that are contained in the fix and the name of the library in which the objects reside after you install the fix.
