Maintenance delivery
As of Jan 2009, Tivoli no longer requires Fix Packs to only ship on specific quarterly dates.

All Tivoli products will ship maintenance vehicles, including Fix Packs, as necessary to best meet customer needs.

Customers can use My Notifications and update their profile to subscribe to receive notification for specific products on a daily or weekly basis. Customers will then be notified when a specific product releases a fix pack. To subscribe to My Notifications, please visit the Tivoli Support Website and choose My Notifications from the right navigation bar. The Tivoli Support Website is located at: http://www.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/

How will we communicate when APARs will be fixed?
APARs closing after June 6, 2004 will contain additional information to help customers plan their maintenance updates. Customers will be able to track the resolution of an APAR via the web.  Once an APAR is fixed and closed, the customer will see one of the following in the APAR text, under the heading "Problem Conclusion":

  • The name of the available maintenance vehicle (fix pack or interim fix) fixing the problem, or
  • The name of the scheduled fix pack

To view the projected release date, customers can access IBM's Support and Downloads website and search by fix pack name. Go to http://www.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/, click the 'Download' box and type the fix pack name into the field titled "Enter product names, search terms, phrase, error code or APAR number".

Open APARs will continue to be updated with the latest workaround information.
