Title: How to tell from cmplst what FP's are required?
Post by: Yizi on 26 Oct 2016 06:55:52 AM

Hi all, not sure if this has been asked before but couldn't find anything online. I need to know how we can identify what FP is required from looking at the cmplst file.
Do we also need to update Cognos in order or the last FP can be applied?

The list shows the following under update information:

Code Select

[Product Update Information]

C8BISRVR_UPDATE_version=C8BISRVR-AW64-ML-RTM-10.2.5003.113-0
C8BISRVR_UPDATE_name=IBM Cognos Business Intelligence Server Update
COGMOB_Update_version=COGMOB-AW64-ML-RTM-10.2.5004.533-0
COGMOB_Update_name=IBM Cognos Mobile Update

Cognos shows the following updates available:

IBM Cognos fixpacks are incremental.
According to your components list, you are running BI 10.2.1 with fixpack 3.

So if you want the latest fixpack, you can apply fixpack 11.
