You can install the fix pack for IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager using any of the following different installation mechanisms:
The InstallShield MultiPlatform (ISMP) program, which installs the appropriate IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager fix pack for the entire Tivoli management region (Tivoli region) using activity plans.
A graphical user interface that enables you to select the fix pack to install and the target machines on which to install them.
Tivoli Management Framework command that enables you to specify the fix pack to install and the target machines on which to install them from the command line interface.
The SIS console or SIS commands enable you to specify the fix pack to install and on which target machines to install them.
The InstallShield MultiPlatform (ISMP) program provides a wizard-guided process for installing fix packs. It performs a check of the environment and installs prerequisites required, if any, to perform the upgrade process.
The ISPM tool generates an activity plan in XML file format that you can use to upgrade your IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager environment. It provides a depoting mechanism and allows you to plan the upgrade of the entire Tivoli region by creating activity plans that can be scheduled at a later date.
This installation can be used on all platforms supported as a Tivoli server, excluding Linux for S/390(R).
