Patch:  4.1.1-TMF-0026

Component:  Tivoli Framework 4.1.1

General Description:

    4.1.1-TMF-0026 is an install_engine patch that does not require the
    prior installation of any other 4.1.1 patches and does not supersede
    any earlier 4.1.1 patches.

Problems Fixed:

  New fixes in 4.1.1-TMF-0026:

    APAR IY56180, Duplicate of APAR IY60524
    Symptoms: A patch installation will not fail if a required PKT file
    is missing.  An error is logged to the screen, but the installation
    continues and registers the patch. This causes problems for
    customers who do their installations through scripts and rely on the
    return code of wpatch to determine if further installations should
    be done.

    Additional Information: The fix for this APAR also corrects the
    problem reported in APAR IY60524.

Architecture(s):

    Solaris, AIX, HPUX, Windows 2000, OS/2, Linux

Applying the Patch:    

    1)  Extract the patch:

        On a Unix system:
        
        Extract the contents into a scratch directory. For the purpose
        of this release note, assume that the symbol $PATCH points to
        this directory.

        # cd $PATCH
        # tar xvf 4.1.1-TMF-0026.tar

        On a Windows 2000 system:

        Extract the contents into a scratch directory. For the purpose
        of this release note, assume that the symbol %PATCH% points to
        this directory. 

        > %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\Tivoli\setup_env
        > X:              
          ^-- 'X' is drive letter where %PATCH% is found
        > cd %PATCH%
        > tar xvf 4.1.1-TMF-0026.tar

        NOTE:  If you are extracting the tar image on a Windows 2000
        system, you will find an executable for tar in the TME
        installation on Windows 2000 under bin/w32-ix86/tools/tar.exe.

    2)  If this patch is to be installed on a release level of 3.6 or
