Prerequisites
For Windows, Linux, or AIX, you must use Installation Manager, version 1.6.1 or later to install this update. If you have an earlier version, Installation Manager will attempt to update itself to the latest version when you update Rational Asset Manager.
- To use Installation Manager for AIX, you must use a graphical user interface (GUI). If you do not have access to a GUI, you must install the update silently by using the command line with response scripts or install using console mode

If you have Internet access, you can use Installation Manager to locate and install the updates directly from the IBM update repository for Rational Asset Manager, version 7.5.1.2.
Important: When Rational Asset Manager is installed, the location of its update repository is automatically embedded in Installation Manager.
