Subject: Re: [WDSCI-L] Getting updates

Is it still possible with version 7.0 to download the updates once to
a
local server so that all desktops can update from there? The update
to
7.0.0.4 is about 950Mb and takes hours - we can't afford to have every
desktop dragging this down across the net. I did this with version 6,
but I can't find a download site for 7.0 so I guess I am missing a
trick
somewhere. Any pointers gratefully received.

Google for "WDSC 7.0.0.4" - worked for me:

As others have already suggested, you may wish to take a look at the IBM

Packaging Utility for building a local Repository of code. The 7.0.0.4
update can be copied to this Repository (using Copy Packages in PU).

The benefit of this approach is a single Repository for all new installs

as well as updates - no need to maintain separate images for each
update.
Hope this helps.
