Fix Central disconnected ordering

for System i

Fix Central now supports the option for disconnected ordering.

Disconnected ordering allows you to:

• Order your fixes on virtual CD images without connecting to your
  System i
• Download your virtual CD images using Download Director or FTP
• Order fixes without tailoring to a specific System i

To use disconnected ordering, complete the following:

1. Start Fix Central and add fixes to your fix cart.
2. Select the Do not connect to my System i ordering option.
3. Continue with Fix Central as you would normally.

The connected ordering option is still available.

Connected ordering allows you to:

• Download your fixes immediately to your System i using HTTP or download virtual CD images using Download Director or FTP
• Reduce your total download size by removing previously installed PTFs from your fix cart
