Installing and uninstalling fix packs

Preparing a fix pack for installation or removal

Preparing to install or uninstall a fix pack

The fix pack utility updates an existing installation of CICS Transaction Gateway. Fix packs are available online at: http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/

The fix pack downloaded from Fix Central varies in size. The CICS Transaction Gateway for Multiplatforms fix pack is approximately 40 MB in size, the CICS Transaction Gateway Desktop Edition fix pack is approximately 25 MB in size. You need to unpack the downloaded fix pack file.

The fix pack utility runs in console mode and must be run by a user with a suitable level of authority. On Windows platforms, log on with administrator privileges; on UNIX and Linux platforms log on as root.

Before installing or uninstalling the fix pack, shutdown any local CICS TG applications, the Gateway daemon, and then the Client daemon. Make sure that the Client daemon process cclclnt has ended.

On AIX systems after the Client daemon has shutdown issue the command:
/usr/sbin/slibclean
