Install a fix pack

Install a fix pack when IBM Customer Support instructs us to do so.

The appliance does not automatically create a backup copy of a partition when we apply a fix pack to it. To back up your partition before we apply the fix pack, then we must do it manually.Restriction: We cannot uninstall fix packs.

Fix packs are applied to the current partition. If a fix pack is installed on your appliance, we can view information about who installed it, comments, patch size, and the installation date.

Steps

1. In the local management interface, go to System > Updates and Licensing > Fix Packs.

2. In the Fix Packs pane, click New.

3. In the Add Fix Pack window, click Browse for fix pack: to locate the fix pack file, and then click Open.

4. Click Save Configuration to install the fix pack.
