Maintenance Packages through PTF Distribution website

All Data Protection for Microsoft SQL Server and Data Protection for Oracle maintenance packages can be accessed by using the PTF website for maintenance deliveries. The HTTPS link in the section "Download package" directs to the PTF website.

Maintenance update packages require an existing 8.1.x installation on the machine because the PTF maintenance update packages do not contain the license enablement files required to use the component. If this is your initial installation of Data Protection for Microsoft SQL Server or Data Protection for Oracle on a host, you must obtain your packages, with the associated license enablement file, from the Passport Advantage Online website.
