IBM BigFix Patches for Windows now applies the “Upgrade” category for content that upgrades specifically to newer majorversions of Oracle Java Runtime Environment (JRE). An example of a major upgrade would be JRE Version 1.6.0_81 to 1.7.0_45. An upgrade from JRE version 1.6.0_24 to 1.6.0_81 is an example of a minor upgrade.
This change applies to the existing Fixlets listed below and for Fixlets and for JRE Fixlets that upgrade to a newer major version. The listed existing Fixlets were previously categorized as “Security Update”. Moving forward, Security Update will cover all other Fixlets.
The following Fixlets are now categorized as “Upgrade”.
