Re: Running updater from command line

I think the complexity is frustrating sometimes too.  It can be difficult 
just to figure out which version of a particular component you are using. 
I hope this will be ameliorated somewhat by the next release, which is 
supposed to be a 'componentized' install - ie, if all you do is RPG 
development, you only install Eclipse, RSE and forget about the rest.

As for update troubles, I haven't really had too much trouble with this. 
Rational Product Updater 'just works' as far as I am concerned.  We also 
managed to download the first fixpack for version 6 and update all of the 
developers without downloading for hours each time.  The only problem I've 
seen is that the 'updating workbench' portion of the RPU process takes 
*forever*.  I just do the updates overnight, or during a meeting, and then 
it doesn't waste time.
