Apply Maintenance to RAMDB

You can apply maintenance directly to your RAMDB. The maintenance can then propagate to all connected regions, if any. If necessary, you can restore the maintenance using your RAMDBd as input (if the maintenance has not yet been applied to RAMDBd).

Follow these steps:

1. Log on to your product region and enter CMD.

   The command entry panel appears.

2. Apply-check the RAMDB fix by entering the following command:

   $RMDB04D OPT=APPLY FIX=fix-name CHECK=YES
   

   fix_name

   Is RAM@UPDT for published solutions or TZddddd for test fixes.

   When the APPLY CHECK finishes, a report appears. The report shows whether an APPLY of the fix will be successful, and also exactly what changes will result from the APPLY.

   Note: Perform this step for the following reasons:

   • To see what happens if a fix is applied to a RAMDB
   • To see whether a fix has been applied to a RAMDB
3. Apply the RAMDB fix by entering the following command:

   $RMDB04D OPT=APPLY FIX=fix_name
   

Note: If a RAMDB fix does not apply correctly or if you want to restore a fix, restore the RAMDB maintenance.
