IBM is pleased to announce the release of supplementary content for
Recommended Patch Cluster Fixlets. The Recommended Patch Cluster patch
contains hundreds of updates and requires a significant amount of disk
space to download and install.

Highlights:
      Disk space checks
      The 'Solaris 10: Insufficient Disk Space - /var' task  (ID 3) that
      checks whether the file system containing /var has sufficient space
      to extract and install Recommended Patch Cluster patches.

      Client Pre-cache Configuration Setting
      For pre-caching scenarios, you can use the 'Set Client Pre-cache
      Configuration Setting' task (ID 8) to assign a new value for the
      pre-cache configuration setting
      (_BESClient_Download_PreCacheStageDiskLimitMB) to enable the
      Recommended Patch Cluster installation.

      Additional log
      To debug the commands used to install patch cluster, check the log
      located in
      var/opt/BESClient/__BESData/__Global/Logs/<YYMMDD>.installcluster.log.
 The log follows the IBM Endpoint Manager log format, which starts with a
      timestamp for each run.

      Note: If the Fixlet is deployed to an endpoint multiple times on the
      same day, each run is appended to the log file. The log file does not
      get overwritten.



Actions to Take:
Gathering of the site will automatically show the updates made.
