Can the statement about "wrapping jar" for DCC ifix be ignored in this scenario ?
Running CLM 6.0.2 w ifix02 and looking to "modernize". In readme for ifix12 it speaks to a new datacollection jar file:
3. DATA COLLECTION COMPONENT INSTRUCTIONS Note: The wrapping jar file last changed in iFix005. If you have already deployed this file as part of installing iFix005 or later, you do not have to do these steps again. Installing the wrapping jar file allows DCC ETL jobs to be scheduled from the Insight server. However, It should be noted that installing this on AIX is not supported because Insight does not support AIX. To install the wrapping jar patch with Data Collection Component:I only just noticed two things in the Note: paragraph: 1) Insight and 2) AIX I know that Insight can run on AIX, but some of the Insight infrastructure requires Windows ( ETL jobs, if memory serves ). We have Cognos BI, but depend on DCC for data collection. So: should I just drop the server patch into the patch folder and bounce the DCC application server ( and Load Jobs ) to effect install of newer ifix ? Thanks in advance, Kevin |

The section "7. ADDITIONAL FIXES INSTRUCTIONS" in the readme file list quite a few DCC defects, and you should check whether your environment is affected by any of them. Below are the work items backported to the 6.0.2 stream after iFix002.
Comments The readme for ifix12 mentions several work items (e.g. 401422 related to 398908 ) all point back to item #3 DATA COLLECTION COMPONENT. So the question remains:
Kevin .. I see its been a few days so you've probably already gone past this point but it sounds like you are dealing with the same ReadMe.txt instruction confusion I first encountered. Every iFix from iFix005 to iFix012 included the new datacollection.wrapper.jar file and the only purpose of the reference to iFix005 is to basically say 'hey - if you already updated this jar file in one of the earlier patches you don't need to do it again"
Since you were jumping from iFix002 to iFix012 then upgrade the DCC jar file (which is included in the iFix012 zip file) and perform the other steps as well. If/when later iFixes come out you can ignore the instruction (unless IBM includes a newer DCC jar file).
The funny thing is - this same instruction is included in the 6.0.4 iFixes even though that jar file was already included with GA deployment of 6.0.4. Daniel,
