Offline installation instructions

Install Interim Fix 0001 for Rational Product Updater v6.0

1. Log on to your system with a user ID that has write permission to the installation location and start Rational Product Updater. (This is typically an ID with Administrator authority on Windows or root authority on Linux).

2. Configure Rational Product Updater to use local copy of zip file instead of the URL of the IBM server:

   • Create a policy.xml file with the following lines in it:

     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
     <update-policy> 
       <url-map pattern="com.ibm.orca.product.updater"
         url="jar:file:///<PATH>/rpu_ifix0001.zip!/site.xml"/> 
     </update-policy>

     <PATH> is the directory where rpu_ifix0001.zip was downloaded.
   • If you are already using a policy.xml file, add the above <url-map> element to it instead.
   • Use Preferences : Updates Site in the Rational Product Updater to point to the policy.xml file you created or modified.
3. Click Find Updates and the Product Updater will find the fix and ask to install it.
4. Click OK and the fix will be installed and the Product Updater will restart itself.
