<div><p>Obtain the latest PTFs and service packs for your server to avoid

unnecessary service calls and create a more stable operating environment.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Fixes for iSeries™ Access
|
||
|
|
for Windows<sup>®</sup> are
|
||
|
|
integrated into service packs, which are packaged into a program temporary
|
||
|
|
fix (PTF) for delivery. You can download the latest PTF to your iSeries server
|
||
|
|
to provide a more stable operating environment for the iSeries Access for Windows client,
|
||
|
|
and to correct known problems. Once you have installed the PTF on your host
|
||
|
|
system, you can use the <span class="uicontrol">When to check service level</span> function
|
||
|
|
to distribute service packs to client PCs.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Service pack PTFs update the iSeries Access for Windows installation
|
||
|
|
image on the iSeries server.
|
||
|
|
All installations reflect the latest service pack level of the host iSeries server. </p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p"><div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> Only users with administrator authority can perform installations,
|
||
|
|
service pack updates, and upgrades to new releases, however, you can allow
|
||
|
|
your users to <span class="uicontrol">Access scheduled tasks remotely</span> without
|
||
|
|
administrator privileges.</div>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Obtain the latest PTF for installation on your iSeries server</h4><p>Use
|
||
|
|
the send PTF order (SNDPTFORD) command to order the PTF for your iSeries server.
|
||
|
|
Since the service pack PTFs generally exceed the size limit to be sent electronically,
|
||
|
|
you can receive the PTF on media by changing the Delivery Method, DELIVERY,
|
||
|
|
parameter on SNDPTFORD to *ANY. (The parameter defaults to *LINKONLY.) Alternatively,
|
||
|
|
use Fix Central.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You can also order a service pack CD electronically,
|
||
|
|
and place it directly in the integrated file system in a Virtual Optical Device
|
||
|
|
from which you can install. To use this option, you must prearrange it with IBM<sup>®</sup> Service. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To
|
||
|
|
learn more about PTF ordering options, see <a href="http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/support/">IBM iSeries support</a> (http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/support/) <img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> and select <strong>Fixes</strong> from the left menu.</p>
