Procedure

  1. Start Installation Manager.
  2. Click Update.
    Note: If you are prompted to authenticate, use the IBM ID and password that you use to access protected IBM software websites.
  3. Select the package group to update.
    Tip: If you select Update all, Installation Manager will search all of the added and predefined repositories for recommended updates to all of the package groups that it has installed.
    • Use this feature only if you have full control over which fixes are contained in the targeted repositories.
      • If you create and point to a set of custom repositories that include only the specific recommended fixes that you want to install, you should be able to use this feature confidently.
      • If you enable searching service repositories or install fixes directly from other live web-based repositories, you might not want to select this option so that you can select only the fixes that you want to install for each offering on subsequent panels.
    • If you select Update all, Installation Manager will install only the recommended updates to all of the package groups; it will not allow you to select non-recommended fixes for installation. If you want to install non-recommended fixes, perform the following actions:
      1. On this panel, clear the Update all check box and select an offering to update.
      2. On the next panel, clear the option to show only recommended fixes and then select the fixes that you want to install.
  4. Click Next.
  5. Select the version to which you want to update under IBM WebSphere SDK Java Technology Edition Version 6.0 for Liberty.
  6. Click Next.
  7. Accept the terms in the license agreements, and click Next.
  8. Review the summary information, and click Update.
    • If the installation is successful, the program displays a message indicating that installation is successful.
    • If the installation is not successful, click View Log File to troubleshoot the problem.
  9. Click Finish.
  10. Click File > Exit to close Installation Manager.
