Abstract

UPDATE FIX FLOW FOR IMPORT

Error Description

A PD alert is being raised against the product the fix is      
associated with when a fix fails to import.  This is incorrect  
in that the product is still functional, just the fix associated
with it failed to import.  So now will be raising the alert in  
the dashboard against update instead and leave the product in  
the current state.  Also will be cleaning out the prep area    
fully as some artifacts could be left around.                  
                                                               
During migration there will need to be an update of the system  
clients.  Adding fragment processing code that will handle      
updating the system clients before migration from 1.1 to 1.2.  
                                                               
Also will not automatically include the softphone client on IBMi
to appear on the User Program Catalog page.

Problem Conclusion

Raising the alert against update instead of the application.    
Also cleaning out the extract directory of the fix before      
reimporting.                                                    
Added fragment handling code to quick start and smart business  
clients can be updated during migration.                        
                                                               
Finally removed the automatic addition of the voip softphone    
client on the User Program Catalog Page.
