<p><font size="2" face="sans-serif">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. </font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif"><b>Highlights:</b></font>
<ul type="disc" style="padding-left: 36pt">
<li><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Disk space checks<br>
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. <br>
</font>
<li><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Client Pre-cache Configuration Setting<br>
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.<br>
</font>
<li><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Additional log</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">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.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif"><b>Note</b></font><font size="2" face="sans-serif">: 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.</font></ul>
