Is it possible to update directly from WC10.2M010 CPS05 --->WC10.2M030 CPS05 skipping from wc10.2M030

Update Path

WC10.2M010 CPS05 --->WC10.2M030-->WC10.2M030 CPS05 (repeative update steps)

WC10.2M010 CPS05 --->WC10.2M030 CPS05 (any chance to update directly to M030CPS05?)

Gangadharan,

To add to what Randy has posted, it is actually best practice to do what you suggest - go straight to M030 CPS05.  Don't update to M030, and then apply CPS05 afterwards.

For example, what I have done (M020 CPS11 to M030 CPS05) is download all of the M030 stuff to the computer in folder called m030, and then download CPS05 into a folder called m030_cps05.  Then what you need to do is launch the PSI from the m030_cps05 folder, not the m030 folder.  Towards the end of the PSI, you will get the screen that asks where all of the CDs are located.  That is where I enter both locations - both the m030 directory and the m030_cps05 directory.

In summary, the key is to launch the PSI from the CPS.

Look at page 7 of that document and then for 10.2 M010-CPS5 in the source release (line 11) and then note that 10.2 M030-CPS05 is a supported upgrade.

While it is a supported path, I'm not sure how you get there without going through 10.2 M030 (no CPS) first.  Tech support told me that if I place the CPS in the stage directory when installing 10.2 M030 that the CPS would be installed at the same time.  That did not happen.  I still had to manually apply the CPS after M030 installation.
