To upgrade the GUI components of IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager using the SPB fix packs on endpoints or stand-alone machines, use one of the following installation mechanisms:
The SPB fix packs prerequisite the IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager, version 4.2 GA package.
For a successful fix pack installation using any of these installation mechanisms, you must ensure that the values of the default variables specified in the software package block correspond to the existing installation on the machine to be upgraded. If they do not correspond, ensure they are stored in the swdis.var file. If these values were deleted from the swdis.var file, you must overwrite them at fix pack installation time using the appropriate panel of the SPB Patch Installer, or using the "-D" command line option (wdinstsp -D variable=value GUI_component.spb).
The default variables defined in the SPB fix packs are listed in the following table for each component.
This installation method uses ISMP technology and enables you to install fix packs on an endpoint or stand-alone machine to upgrade IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager, Version 4.2 GUI components. The SPB Patch Installer is supported on Microsoft Windows, IBM AIX, Solaris Operating Environment, Linux (for Intel(TM)), and HP-UX.
