<div><p><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />This topic discusses how you can use an image catalog
|
||
|
|
to install PTFs that you receive on physical media or that you received using
|
||
|
|
FTP when you downloaded fixes from Fix Central.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span></p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> <img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />You cannot install PTFs directly from an image catalog
|
||
|
|
with Management Central, but you can use the copy from media function to copy
|
||
|
|
PTFs into save files from an image catalog associated with a virtual optical
|
||
|
|
device. For instructions, see <a href="rzam8fixobtaincopymedia.htm#rzam8fixobtaincopymedia">Copy fixes from media</a>.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></div>
|
||
|
|
<p>To
|
||
|
|
install your fixes from an image catalog, do the following steps:</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span><strong>Create a virtual optical device</strong></span> <p>It is possible
|
||
|
|
that you used an image catalog that is associated with a virtual optical device
|
||
|
|
to perform a software upgrade. If you did, you do not need to
|
||
|
|
perform this step. If you do not have a virtual optical device, you must create
|
||
|
|
one.</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>To create a device description, type the following on any command line: <pre>CRTDEVOPT DEVD(OPTVRT01) RSRCNAME(*VRT) ONLINE(*YES) TEXT(<em>text-description</em>)</pre>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />To determine whether a virtual optical device exists, type

the following: <pre>WRKDEVD DEVD(*OPT)</pre>
|

|
|
<p>A virtual optical
|
||
|
|
device is indicated by a device type of 632B.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />To ensure that
|

the device is active, press F14 (Work with configuration status). If the device
|

is not active, type 1 to vary it on. <img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
