The utility create_CM_Patch.sh is used to create a patch release of CMs. A patch release version is created as a difference between a previous CM version and a new CM version. This type of release may be useful if the implementation team wants to ship only an update of the previously released version by preparing a smaller package that can be delivered easily by email or ftp to the customer.
Here is the process for creating a patch release CM version:
./create_CM_Patch.sh -d $RELEASEHOME
where:
$RELEASEHOME is the directory that currently holds your CM full release packages - and where you also want to put your new patch package.
Tar and zip the resulting CM patch directory for Unix platform or zip it for Windows platform and ship it to your customer. The customer who wishes to install the delivered package onsite will follow the instructions:
cd CMCCB.$VERNO
where
$VERNO is the version number (the content of the file CMVERSION.txt)
./install.sh - on Unix
install.cmd - on Windows
