Installing a fix pack

Install a fix pack when IBM® Customer Support instructs you to do so.

Before you begin

The appliance does not automatically create a backup copy of a partition when you apply a fix pack to it. If you want to back up your partition before you apply the fix pack, then you must do it manually.
Restriction: You cannot uninstall fix packs.

About this task

Fix packs are applied to the current partition. If a fix pack is installed on your appliance, you can view information about who installed it, comments, patch size, and the installation date.

Procedure

  1. In the local management interface, go to System > Updates and Licensing > Fix Packs.
  2. In the Fix Packs pane, click New.
  3. In the Add Fix Pack window, click Browse for fix pack: to locate the fix pack file, and then click Open.
  4. Click Save Configuration to install the fix pack.
