• Patching AIX: Technology Levels, Service Packs, instfix, and emgr interim fixes

  AIX ships fixes as Technology Levels and Service Packs applied with installp, checked with instfix and lslpp, plus temporary interim fixes (ifixes/efixes) managed with emgr. Knowing which layer you are updating, and that a Service Pack can be applied without being committed, avoids an update that cannot be rolled back cleanly.
