5. Latest versions of the installed interim features.

If you have interim features installed, you must install the latest versions. Failure to do so will result in errors that will block the update from being installed. If you want to install from a local update site, ensure to download the latest versions to your site.

To determine the versions of the installed product and interim features:

1. Start IBM RSD Product Updater:
   • On Windows operating systems, click Start > Programs > IBM Rational Systems Developer V6.0.1 > IBM RSD Product Updater.
   • On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0 (GNOME desktop environment), open the main menu and click Programming > IBM RSD Product Updater.
   • On SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9.0 (K Desktop Environment), open the main menu and click IBM Rational Systems Developer V6.0.1 > IBM RSD Product Updater.
2. Click the Installed Products tab.

If you disabled any product features by modifying the feature.xml files or through the Update Manager by clicking Help > Software Updates > Manage Configuration, you must enable them before you install this interim fix.

3.0 Installing the fix pack

Install the interim fix with the same user account that installed the product.

Restrictions:

• The product cannot be open when you install this interim fix.
• On Windows operating systems, you must use an account with Administrator privileges. On Linux operating systems, you must log in as root.
• When you install the latest version of an interim feature, such as Rational XDE^™ Model Import Feature 6.0.1.6.0.1, Rational Rose^® Model Import Feature 6.0.1.5.0.1, or Rational DoDAF Modeling Feature 6.0.1.1.0.2.1, IBM RSD Product Updater (RPU) will automatically select Interim Fix 003a of the product. If you roll back Interim Fix 003a, RPU will automatically select the Interim Feature for roll back. If you have a previous version of the Interim Feature installed and you roll it back to the previous version, you must also roll back Interim Fix 003a to Interim Fix 002. If you do not have an earlier version of the Interim Feature installed, you can leave Interim Fix 003a on your system after you roll back the Interim Feature.
