FTP hints 
 
Most FTP command line programs support getting multiple files with one subcommand. The subcommand is mget. Before you run mget you should first set the download type to binary, and then disable prompting. Binary mode should be set in all cases. When you disable prompts, the mget command runs without requiring user intervention.
 
 
Example 
ftp>binary
ftp>prompt
ftp>mget *.bff

二.安裝補丁：
Before installation Before you begin the installation of this package, please note the following:

1.You must be logged in as the root user to install this package.
2.IBM recommends creating a system backup before starting the installation procedure.
3.The latest AIX installation hints and tips for your version of AIX are available from the IBM Subscription service for Unix and Linux web site:

These tips contain important information that should be reviewed before installing this update.

4.IBM recommends creating a separate file system for /usr/sys/inst.images for the following reasons:
Downloaded fix packages require a significant amount of disk space.
By creating a separate file system, you prevent the expansion of the /usr file system.
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Package installation Follow these steps to install the update package:

1.Always run the inutoc command to ensure the installation subsystem will recognize the new fix packages you download. This command creates a new .toc file for the fix package. Run the inutoc command in the same directory where you downloaded the package filesets. For example, if you downloaded the filesets to /usr/sys/inst.images, run the following command:
inutoc /usr/sys/inst.images

(Optional): Renaming the *.bff files is not necessary, but does help you see which filesets are affected by the downloaded files. To rename the downloaded files to their fileset name, run the bffcreate command. After renaming the files, run the inutoc command again. For example, if you downloaded the filesets to /usr/sys/inst.images, run the following command to rename them:
bffcreate -c -d /usr/sys/inst.images

 

2.For all updates

To install all updates from this package that apply to the installed filesets on your system, use the following command:
smit update_all

It is highly recommended that you apply all updates from this package.

 

3.Reboot the system. A reboot is required for this update to take effect.
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
After installation You may wish to retain this package for future use. When you install additional operating system software you will want to use this package to bring the additional software up to this level.

You can create a list of the APARs closed in this package, which you can then view (and search) in an ASCII editor, such as vi or emacs. First, create the .toc file for the package by using the inutoc command described above. Then, run the following command to extract the APAR listings from the .toc file:

grep ^I .toc > apar.list

Run the following command to eliminate duplicate entries from the apar.list file:

sort -u apar.list -o sorted.apars
