Cumulative PTFs for IBM i

WebSphere® Application Server requires a minimum cumulative PTF package level for the operating system on your IBM® i server. If the correct cumulative PTF package is not installed on your IBM i server, you must install the cumulative PTF before you install WebSphere Application Server.

To install the cumulative PTF, follow your normal PTF installation procedures.

For more information about installing cumulative PTFs, see Installing cumulative PTF packages in the IBM i information center.

Installing the cumulative PTF package requires you to restart your IBM iserver. If it is not convenient to restart your server at the time that you apply the new PTF package, you can load and apply the PTFs and then specify that any PTFs that require an IPL be applied at the next normal IPL of the server. However, do not install the WebSphere Application Server product until all of the PTFs have been successfully applied.

For information about verifying your cumulative PTF level, see Determining the proper cumulative PTF level on IBM i.

If the correct cumulative PTF is already installed, skip this step and continue to Task overview: installing on IBM i.
