Sun GlassFish Web Space Server 10.0 Update Series Release Notes

Installing the Web Space Server 10.0 Update 6 Components

After installing the core Web Space Server 10.0 software, installation of the Update 6 components can be performed entirely through the Update Tool that is bundled with Web Space Server 10.0.

Note –

The version of Update Tool included with some versions of GlassFish Enterprise Server is not compatible with the Web Space Server update repositories. You must use the version of Update Tool that comes with Web Space Server 10.0 software rather than the version that is bundled with GlassFish .

Update Tool also includes a command-line (CLI) Image Packaging System (IPS) utility, called pkg, that provides the same core functionality as its GUI-based counterpart. This IPS tool is started with the ws_install_dir/bin/pkg command. See the Update Center wiki for complete information about Update Tool and the pkg command.

You can install the Web Space Server 10.0 Update 6 components through either the Update Tool GUI or with the pkg CLI utility.
