Quick Start


Before Applying Maintenance Updates

Maintenance updates may contain README files that provide a summary of changes for the PTF. Review this information before you apply the update:

  1. Mount the CD-ROM by entering from the root directory:
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |  crfs -v cdrfs -d /dev/cd0 -m /cdrom -pro                                      |
    |                                                                                |
    |  mount /cdrom                                                                  |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  2. Change to a directory where you have write permission. For example, to change to the /home/temp directory, enter:
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |cd /home/temp                                                                   |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  3. List the contents of the PTF using the RESTORE command. For example:
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |restore -Tvf /cdrom/u452223.bff                                                 |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  4. Note the relative location of any README files. For example:
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |./usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/README.SRV                                          |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  5. Restore the README or fixinfo file. For example:
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |restore -xvf /cdrom/u452223.bff ./usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/README.SRV          |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  6. Change to the directory containing the README and use your favorite browser to view the contents. See Using Softcopy Documentation for information on browsers.
