Build and Apply the DSM/SCM H02 Software Product Revision
The Build process creates an activation package of products contained in the new software revision.
During the Apply process, the activation package is transferred to the target system. When the
Apply request is finished, a snapshot is automatically created and returned to the host. Because
you are building and applying only a few files, it should take less than an hour before the Build
and Apply requests are finished and the snapshot is returned. When the Build and Apply requests
are finished, the new software is placed in the current SYSnn subvolume.
1. On the New software revision page, click Build/Apply to display the options for your
Build/Apply.
2. Edit the instructions to the operator to provide the current SYSnn number and then click OK.
3. Complete the Build/Apply Request dialog box:
a. Under Perform steps, select Build, apply & process snapshot.
b. Enter the current SYSnn in the Activation SYSnn text box (because no SYSGEN is required).
c. Click Submit Build/Apply.
