Software Revision Notifications
Software Revision Notifications
Software Revision Notifications are sent by the ExpressNotice service to announce the
release of an unrestricted time-critical fix SPR and to provide enough information to
help you decide whether to evaluate the SPR further.
A Software Revision Notification contains one or more SPR Introduction Documents
(SIDs). See Evaluating SPR Introduction Documents (SIDs) on page 3-5 for a detailed
explanation of the information provided in an SID.
A typical summary of the SIDs contained in a Software Revision Notification might look
like:

SPRNOTEs
An SPRNOTE is a collection of all available information about a software product
revision. It contains the information that appears in the ExpressNotice Software
Revision Notification message, the SPR Introduction Document (SID), the SPR softdoc
addendum(s) describing the product revision, a list of the distribution subvolume (DSV)
files for the product, and a list of requisite SPRs.
SPRNOTEs can be viewed through TIM Support Collections.
