Install Fixes

About this task

You can install multiple fixes in an installation at the same time.

You can watch a demo relating to this task in the Command Central area of the IBM TechXchange Community website.

If any support patches exist on the target products or components, Command Central automatically uninstalls them before installing the fix. Depending on the number of fixes you select for installation, the fix installation job could take some time to complete.

Procedure

  1. Create a fix repository that contains the fixes to install. For instructions, see Before Installing Fixes and Support Patches.
  2. Go to Environments > ALL > Installations and click the target installation.
  3. On the Fixes tab, click the plus icon, click Install fixes, click the fix repository to use, and select the fixes to install.

    The table below lists the operating system name for each value that can appear in the OS column.
