Install and uninstall interim fixes and fix packs
Product fix packs contain bundled service to bring WAS up to a new product level. Interim fixes provide corrective service for specific known problems. We can use IBM Installation Manager to update the product with the interim fixes and fix packs that are available for your service level of WAS v8.
Contact the IBM Software Support Center for information about upgrades for WAS. The most current information is available from the IBM Software Support Center and Fix Central.
IBM Installation Manager is used to apply and remove product maintenance.
Tip: We can use the IBM Packaging Utility to generate a new local or web-based repository that contains all of the fixes to install and then use Installation Manager to update WAS v8.x with all of the interim fixes as a group. For information on using the Packaging Utility, see the IBM Installation Manager v1.4 Information Center.
