How to deliver multiple hotfixes as a package
We are yet to release our application which has around 5 hotfixes and we had to mention each and every hotfix in the installation guides.
I have the hotfix packages locally with me, How do i package all these hotfixes as a single hotfix and share it to users so that they install just one instead of 5.
Thank You

Thanks Kevin. Will raise a request with the GCS.
Just interested to know how are they going to bundle the hotfixes.. Is that something done through our regular RAP rules or is there some other process to bundle them?

Our pegasupport application (also built on PRPC) has a utility to pull in all the required hotfixes (including dependent ones) into a single DL (delivery item) and for most cases ready to be installed by updatemanager directly unless there are some hybrid hotfixes which you will be notified by the engineer.

Hi Avinash Haridasu,
Could you please provide me with the SR once you've opened it for tracking?
Thanks so much!

Our install guides had already been locked so I will not be able to update it with the bundled hotfix id now.
From next time i will make sure to raise an SR to bundle the hotfixes. I has really been a pain to install around 6 individual hotfixes every time we install our app.
Thanks Marissa
