Apply maintenance updates and program fixes to runtime components.
The program is referred to as FixPackLauncher and its name is in the form V.R.M-prod-platform-fixpack.exe, where V.R.M-prod represents the version, release, and modification level of the product, -platform identifies the platform, and -fixpack identifies the fix pack.
For example, the file name 6.0.0-WS-MB-WIN32-FP0006.exe identifies the file for Fix Pack 6 on Version 6.0.0 of WebSphere Message Broker on Windows.For further details of how you can install, and other options that you can specify, see Modes of installation and uninstallation.
If you start this program from a directory other than the one in which the file is saved, you must include the fully qualified path of the file and its name.
FixPackLauncher -a -gui
-gui specifies that you want the installation program to run in graphical mode. Graphical is the default mode if you specify only FixPackLauncher.
For example, use either of the following commands
6.0.0-WS-MB-WIN32-FP0006.exe
6.0.0-WS-MB-WIN32-FP0006.exe -a -gui
FixPackLauncher -a -console
-console specifies that you want the installation program to run in console mode. You must specify this option if you want the installation to run in this mode.
For example:
6.0.0-WS-MB-WIN32-FP0006.exe -a -console
FixPackLauncher -s -a -options "path" -silent
-s specifies that you want the extraction to run in silent mode. You must specify this option if you want the extraction to be completed in this mode.
-a specifies that you want to pass options to the installation program.
-options "path" specifies the path to the silent installation response file.
-silent specifies that you want the installation program to run in silent mode.
If you do not specify a response file, the default options are used from the supplied response file. If you want to tailor the options to suit your installation requriements, create your own response file and specify its location on the command.
For example, to run both the extractor program and the WebSphere Message Broker installation program silently with a response file, enter the following command:
FixPackLauncher -s -a -options "C:\response1.txt" -silent
