INSCDCMNT - Installing CDC Replication Maintenance

Use this command to install an Interim Fix or Fix Pack to a given product install of the CDC Replication Engine for Db2® for i.

The product library must already contain a existing product installation and all jobs must have ended. See Applying interim fixes and fix packs to the CDC Replication Engine for Db2 for i for details on how this command is used when applying maintenance.

The current library in which INSCDCMNT is run needs to contain the maintenance installation objects. It is typically restored into a working library along with the actual maintenance. The utility needs to be run with that working library set as *CURLIB.
