This document describes prerequisites, space requirements, download
instructions, locations of detailed installation instructions, and more
information about the update installer application.
Applying this cumulative fix on Microsoft® Windows®, Linux®, or AIX®
platforms will upgrade your SDK to 1.3.1 Java Technology Edition SR9.
Applying this cumulative fix on the HP-UX platform will upgrade your Java
SDK to Java SDK 1.3.1 Java Technology Edition SR17. Applying this
cumulative fix on the Solaris™ platform will upgrade your Java SDK to Java

Additional information
You can find additional information in the WebSphere® Application Server Versions 5.0 Information
Center.
The readme_updateinstaller.html file in the V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix for
SDKs contains more detailed information about applying fix packs to more
than one product on a machine. It also has detailed information about each
of the two interfaces to the update installer application, which are the
updateSilent and updateWizard interfaces.
The list of fixes and the Release Notes for V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix
for SDKs are on the WebSphere Application Server product support site.

Prerequisites
Install the appropriate V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix for SDK on top of the base
WebSphere Application Server product, the Application Client product, the
Network Deployment product, or on top of the Enterprise product that
extends the base product or the Network Deployment product. This service
pack can also be installed on top of any V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix for SDKs
that might have already been installed on top of these products.
Before installing this SDK on the Sun or HP-UX platforms, it is required
that the latest recommended patches be applied to the system. These can be
downloaded from the following sites:
A Java Runtime Environment must be available, even if the Java
installation is not updated.
Download V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix for SDKs to a read/write directory as
described in Installing V5.0.2
Cumulative Fix for SDKs. Installing from a read-only drive is not
supported.
All required hardware and software prerequisites are described in the supported hardware and software Web site.

Space requirements
Space requirements vary depending on what you are installing. The size of
each download is available on the Support site. For a V5.0.2 Cumulative
Fix for SDKs, have approximately 400 MB of free space in the /tmp
directory and another 400 MB in the file system that hosts the WebSphere
Application Server image (typically /usr) on a Linux-based or UNIX-based
platform, or approximately 800 MB of free space on the disk drive where
you are installing on a Windows platform.
Verify that the free space is available before beginning the
installation. After unpacking the ZIP file, you can delete the ZIP file to
free space if necessary. After the code is installed, the V5.0.2
Cumulative Fix for SDKs code increases the IBM WebSphere Application
Server installation and run-time footprints by a small amount.
Space is also required for the /update directory of the product
installation root. The space required is about the same as the size of the
V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix for SDKs, typically somewhere between 50 MB to 250
MB.
Space is also required for backup files in the /properties/version/backup
directory of the product installation root. The space required is about
the same as the size of the Java SDK Service Pack, somewhere between 50 MB
to 250 MB, varying by product and platform.
The update installer checks for required space before it installs the
V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix for SDKs. However, a bug exists in the space checker
when installing V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix for SDKs.
When installing V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix for SDKs, the update installer
checks for required disk space in the /tmp directory and in the backup
directory. If the /tmp directory or the backup directory have insufficient
space, the update installer issues a warning message.

Steps for installing V5.0.2 Cumulative
Fix for SDKs
- Installing a cumulative fix uninstalls all interim fixes. Uninstalled
fixes at a later level than the cumulative fix are not included in the
cumulative fix. Reinstall such fixes to bring your system back to the
previous fix level.
- Run the backupConfig command to back up configuration files.
See Backing up and restoring administrative
configurations (trun_svr_conf_backup) in the online Information
Center.
- Verify required disk space.
- After backing up the configuration and before installing V5.0.2
Cumulative Fix for SDKs, stop all Java processes that use the IBM
Developer Kit that WebSphere Application Server provides to support V5.0.2
Cumulative Fix SDK on your operating system platform, such as the IBM
Developer Kit for AIX, Java Technology Edition.
Stop all application server processes, the nodeagent process, the
deployment manager process, and all server processes, such as the
jmsserver process, that belong to serviceable features. Features with
server processes include the IBM HTTP Server and the embedded messaging
feature. Stop all Java processes. The product might not continue to run
successfully, or without error if you do install a fix pack while a
WebSphere Application Server-related Java process is running.
- Obtain each V5.0.2 Cumulative Fix for SDKs file that you need from the
WebSphere Application Server product support site.
Download the files into the install_root/update directory, which you can
create.
- At a system command prompt, change the directory to where you
downloaded the file, for example:
For Linux® or UNIX®: |
|
# cd
/usr/WebSphere/DeploymentManager/update |
|
For Windows®: |
|
> cd \WebSphere\update |
|
- Unzip the file.
Note: On Windows platforms, the pkunzip utility might not
decompress the download image correctly. Use another utility (such as
WinZip) to unzip the image.
- Delete the ZIP file if you need more space.
- At a system command prompt, call the updateWizard.sh or the
updateWizard.bat script to begin the installation. Refer to the
readme_updateinstaller.html (or PDF) file for detailed information about
using the updateWizard script.
On some platforms, the updateWizard interface to the update installer
program does not recognize the existing WebSphere Application Server
product. This problem is caused by a limitation in the InstallShield for
MultiPlatforms (ISMP) program that the update installer program uses.
The ISMP program does not recognize previous installations of WebSphere
Application Server on some operating platforms.
To work around the problem, click Specify product information and
type the fully qualified installation root directory for the existing
product in the Installation directory field of the updateWizard panel.
- Re-install any Temporary Fixes you might have uninstalled at step
1.

Finding the readme_updateinstaller.txt,
readme_updateinstaller.html and readme_updateinstaller.pdf files
Open the readme_updateinstaller file in the format of your choice for
more information about using the updateWizard.sh or the updateWizard.bat
scripts, and for information about using the updateSilent.sh or
updateSilent.bat scripts. The updateSilent scripts let you install a fix
pack silently without interaction. It is useful for installing a fix pack
in an environment that does not provide a graphical user interface, for
example.
The readme_updateinstaller file describes an overall procedure for
installing multiple fix packs on machines with multiple products,
including how to install an Enterprise product fix pack, and how to
install fix packs on nodes in a deployment manager cell.
The readme_updateinstaller file describes how to verify that you have
successfully installed the fix pack.
The readme_updateinstaller file also describes how to uninstall a fix
pack.
