About Fix Images
You can create an image using these methods:
*Connect to Empower and download fixes from a list of fixes that are available either for any product you have licensed from Software AG, or for only products in a model installation directory.
*Run Update Manager on an offline machine to create an inventory of products in a model installation directory and of fixes that are already installed on those products. For details, see Creating an Inventory.
When you select fixes to include in an image, Update Manager also lists any other fixes that the selected fixes require. If the products of those required fixes are not installed in the product installation that you update from the image, Update Manager will list those fixes at the end of the installation.
Update Manager does not install any fixes on the local machine during image creation. When additional fixes become available on Empower, you can add them to existing images. Update Manager saves images as zip files. When creating a fix image, Update Manager downloads the products to a directory with the same name as the image (for example, C:\MyDirectory\MyImage) before adding the products to the image. If you lose your connection to the Empower Product Support website, you can resume where you left off. To estimate the image size, check the numbers for Free Space Required (for the image) and Free Space Available (in the file system) in the product selection tree after you select the products to include in the image. If Free Space Required exceeds this number, Update Manager will display an error message.
