The Patch Sequence Page

This page allows you to specify all the information required by the installer in order to determine the sequence in which the patches re applied.

Add a new patch sequence family

Use the [ New Patch Sequence Family ] toolbar button, the "New Patch Sequence Family" context menu option or press the Insert key.

By creating a patch family you specify that the patch is a member of that family. The patch family is used to determine which patches are to be superseded. A patch may belong to multiple patch families if it applies to more than one product or includes multiple fixes.

Add a new patch sequence target

Use the [ New Patch Sequence Target ] toolbar button, the "New Patch Sequence Target" context menu option or press the + key.

Remove a patch sequence family or target

Use the [ Delete ] toolbar button, the "Delete" context menu option or press the Delete key while a tree item is selected.

Rename a patch sequence family or target

Use the "Rename" context menu option or press the F2 key while a tree item is selected.
