Rational Developer for System z

Feature cannot be installed using push-to-client

If you are distributing an product update to a variety of operating systems, then your response file must contain only the list of features that are supported in all the target operating systems. If you are targeting Windows XP and Windows 7 clients, for example, then your response file should not include the compilers feature because it is not supported on Windows 7. Similarly, if you are targeting Windows Vista and Red Hat Linux clients, then your response file should not include the compilers, File Manager Integration, or Fault Analyzer features because they are not supported on Linux.
During a push-to-client product update, the user attempting a product installation receives the following error message on Windows or Linux:
Error: This feature cannot be installed because it is not supported on this operating system.
The following error message might appear on Linux:
ERROR: os = win32
The push-to-client update operation is attempting to install a feature that is not supported on the target operation system.
Edit the response file and remove the unsupported feature from the features attribute of the Rational® Developer for System z® <offering> tag.
Windows example:
If you are targeting Windows XP and Windows 7 clients, then your response file should not include the compilers feature because it is not supported on Windows 7. Remove com.ibm.rdz.compilers from the features attribute of the <offering> tag.
Linux example:
If you are targeting Windows Vista and Red Hat Linux clients, then your response file should not include the compilers, File Manager Integration, or Fault Analyzer features because they are not supported on Linux. Remove com.ibm.rdz.compilers, com.ibm.rdz.fa, and com.ibm.rdz.fm from the features attribute of the <offering> tag.
