Selecting Checklists
To perform your task correctly, you must do the following:
1. Select your task checklist(s).
Use Table 2-1 to identify which checklist(s) you need. If you see two or three checklist titles at the end of
the row for your task, media, and patching situation in Table 2-1 with “and” separating them, perform the
activities on the checklists in the order listed.
For example, if you are applying only a patch on a remote system, and you are using a tape as the
source, but the modifying media is disk, first complete the tasks on Checklist B, “Manage Patches by
Staging Areas,” then complete tasks on Checklist C, “Distributing Staging Areas to Remote Systems.”
Applicable only to Reactive NOT for Powerpatch.
2. Find your checklist(s) and print a copy for each system that you are updating.
3. Read and perform the steps in each section listed on the checklist, and only the sections listed. The
sections are referenced by section number, not page number. You will skip many sections.
4. Use the checklist to determine the order of the sections and tasks.
5. Use the checklist to record your task progress and other information
.
