+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
|8.0.0.x | 1. Determine the WAS version used by your CM server. |
|8.0.1.x | Navigate to the CM profile directory (either the |
|9.0.0.x | profile you specified when installing ClearQuest, or |
|9.0.1.x | <clearquest-home>/cqweb/cqwebprofile), then execute |
| | the script: bin/versionInfo.sh (UNIX) or bin\ |
| | versionInfo.bat (Windows). The output includes a |
| | section "IBM WebSphere Application Server". Make note|
| | of the version listed in this section. |
| | 2. Identify the latest available fix(es) (per the |
| | bulletins listed above) for the version of WAS used |
| | for CM server. |
| | 3. Apply the appropriate WebSphere Application Server |
| | fix(es) directly to your CM server host. No |
| | ClearQuest-specific steps are necessary. |
