Procedure
To update the product across the enterprise:

to change the default parameters for:
- The location and file names for the generated log and response
files
- The location to store data for the simulated installation
- The location of IBM Installation Manager, Version 1.4.3, if it
is not installed into the default installation directory. On Windows,
the default installation directory is C:\Program Files\IBM\Installation
Manager
- The location of the installation files for the product. For example,
if the installation files are on a DVD that is in a drive that is
mapped to D:, the location is D:\.
Important: Edit these parameters only if you edited
them for the installation batch files. The parameter values must match
the values in the installation batch files.
- 2. Generate the silent update response file.
