Installing a HotFix on z/OS

To apply a PowerExchange hotfix, run the z/OS Installation Assistant.

The hotfix must be for the existing PowerExchange version, such as 9.6.1 HotFix 3 for PowerExchange 9.6.1. Otherwise, complete an upgrade to get the software for the PowerExchange version with the latest hotfix.

Hotfixes provide a subset of the PowerExchange software that you install on top of an existing PowerExchange environment. When you install a hotfix, PowerExchange does not create new data libraries, such as those containing data maps, capture registrations, and extraction maps. As a result, you do not need to migrate the contents of these data sets, which simplifies the installation process.

When you apply a hotfix, you cannot add new data sources to an existing PowerExchange environment. To add new data sources, you must complete a full installation or an upgrade.

Because PowerExchange hotfixes are cumulative, install only the latest available hotfix.
