This update requires that you have the following products and fix packs
installed on Windows:

Follow the steps below
to install the update. You should perform the installation using the same
Windows account that originally installed the IBM WebSphere Developer for System
z product. The account must have administrator privileges.
To
install directly from the IBM update server:
1.
Start IBM Installation
Manager from the Windows Start menu. By default this is under Start > All
Programs > IBM Installation Manager > IBM Installation Manager.
Select Update Packages.
2.
Select the location
where you installed IBM WebSphere Developer for System z. The default is IBM Software Development
Platform. The Installed Packages list at the bottom of the panel should
show IBM WebSphere Developer for System z as one of the entries. Click Next.
3.
Modify the selection of
updates as desired. Click Next.
4.
Read and accept the
license agreements for the selected updates, and then follow the remaining
installation dialogs to install the selected updates.
Note: Depending on the speed of your computer processor, the amount of
RAM, and the speed of your Internet connection, the update(s) could take an
extended period of time to download and install.

4.0 Host installation
instructions
For Interim Fix 001 Host
PTF download and installation information, please see the support website.
5.0 Downloading the
update for local installations
Ideally, this update
should be installed directly from the IBM update server, as described in the Workstation installation instructions section above.
However, you may also download an archive file containing the update and
perform local installations. You might want to do this if:
- You have a slow or unstable Internet connection and
want to use a download manager that can resume the download.
- You have difficulty accessing the live IBM update
servers from behind a firewall.
- You prefer to download the update and install it later.
1.
Download the WDz70IFix001.exe
file from the support website.
2.
Run WDz70IFix001.exe
by double-clicking on the file. This program will be used to extract the required
update installation files to a folder on your system. Follow the program
dialogs to select the destination folder and extract the update installation
files. These files are temporary and may be deleted after the installation is
completed.
3.
Start IBM Installation
Manager from the Windows Start menu. By default this is under Start > All
Programs > IBM Installation Manager > IBM Installation Manager.
Select Update Packages.
4.
From the menu bar,
select File > Preferences… This is where you will tell the IBM
Installation Manager the location of the installation files you just extracted.
5.
Click Add Repository…
in the Preferences dialog.
6.
In the Add Repository
dialog, browse to the directory where you extracted the update installation
files. Inside that directory you will see a websphere\wdz\70\update
folder. This is the folder which you
want to select and click OK.
7.
Click Test Connection and ensure that the
repository can be found.
Click OK.
8.
Now that the local
repository has been set, follow the instructions outlined in the Workstation installation instructions section above.
6.0 Installing product
updates from a command line
You can install product
updates, such as interim fixes and fix packs, from a command line so that you
do not have to monitor or input information during the installation. For more
information about installing product updates from a command line, see Working
with silent installations in the IBM Installation Manager help.
7.0 Verifying your
installation:
- You can verify that the update is installed by running View Installed Packages which is
located under Start > All Programs > IBM Installation Manager
> View Installed Packages.
You should see IBM WebSphere
Developer for System z V 7.0.0.1 (7.0.1.
20070221_1235) listed.
