Re: Rational Updater

Mark,
        I have started to implement the batch mirror script.  A question
I have is I get a message "PolicyClassLoader could not fund policy
com.ibm.jxesupport.JxeClassLoaderPolicy".  Is this something that is a
problem for me?

        I am using RWD V6.0.1 Build id: 20050725_1800, WDSC 6.0.1.

Thanks, Matt

I posted details on how to setup a local update site, which I think is
the 
easiest and best way to do this if you have more than one client:

The great thing about this technique is that you do not need to know
where 
the updates are located, it just find them via the same mechanism as the

product updater.  It also creates the policy.xml file for you.

The one big negative to this technique is that since it is mirroring the

update site you have to mirror down a lot of updates that you already 
applied and otherwise no longer need (unless you setup a new PC).  I
just 
did this and having this all available locally made it a lot more 
manageable.
