<h1 class="topictitle1">Copy fixes from media</h1>
<div><p>Management Central provides the ability to copy fix save files
from media, which facilitates the storing of fix save files into service on
your source system.</p>
<div class="section"><p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />You need the save files if you want to distribute fixes
throughout your network. When you load and apply fixes from media (using GO
PTF option 8), the save files are copied to the system only if the Copy PTFs
(CPYPTF) service attribute is set to *YES. If the Copy PTFs (CPYPTF) service
attribute is set to *NO, you must copy the fix save files from media using
this function to distribute them to other systems.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
<p>To copy from media,
follow these steps:</p>
</div>
<ol><li><span>Expand <span class="uicontrol">Management Central</span>.</span></li>
<li><span>Expand the system onto which you want to copy the fix save files
for distribution. This is the system you have chosen to be your source system.
It can also be your model system.</span></li>
<li><span>Expand <span class="uicontrol">Configuration and Services</span>, and then
expand <span class="uicontrol">Fixes Inventory</span>.</span></li>
<li><span>Right-click <span class="uicontrol">All products</span> or the product
for which you want to copy fixes. Fix groups are automatically copied from
media when you select All products or All supported products for Fixes to
copy.</span></li>
<li><span>Select <span class="uicontrol">Copy from media</span>.</span></li>
<li><span>Complete the fields by using the online help.</span></li>
<li><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">OK</span>. You see the Copying from Media
window as the fixes are copied into save files.</span></li>
</ol>
<div class="section"><p>After you have copied the fixes, you should collect your fixes
inventory again. Right-click your source system, select <span class="uicontrol">Inventory</span>,
and then select <span class="uicontrol">Collect</span>. Once you have collected the
inventory, you can install the fixes or distribute them to other systems.</p>
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />If a software product is not installed on your source system, you
can still keep its save files on your source system for distribution to the
systems that you manage by adding support for installed products. To do so,
you must designate the product as supported. The Copy from Media function
gives you the option of designating products as supported. For more information,
see <a href="rzam8fixaddsupport1.htm#rzam8fixaddsupport1">Add fix support for a software product</a>.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
