Generates the option.fixdata file that is archived into liblpp.a for a PTF.
lookupfixdata FixDataDB AparsList
The fixdata files contain a stanza for each APAR that is included in the fix. The lookupfixdata command is invoked by the ptfpkg command.
The lookupfixdata command gets a new line-separated list of APARs from stdin and writes the fixdata stanza to stdout for each APAR in the list. The FixDataDB file is the master database file containing a stanza for all APARs.
| FixDataDB | Specifies the file required as the first positional parameter (argv[1]). |
| AparsList | Provides information from stdin. |
Generate the option.fixdata file for the APARs listed in the aparsList file.

| FixDataDB | The FixDataDB is a stanza-formatted master database file
containing one stanza for each APAR. The format of a stanza is:
fix: name = aparid abstract = apar abstract text type = F filesets = list of filesets:v.r.m.f levels associated with the apar fix symptom = apar symptom text |
| stdin (aparsList) | The APARs list is a new line-separated list of APARs provided from
standard input.
Example: IX35837 IX35839 IX42110 IX43115 |
| stdout (option.fixdata | The lookupfixdata command searches the FixDataDB for the stanzas associated with each APAR in the input list of APARs. Each stanza is written to standard output. The output is redirected into the option.fixdata file which is archived into liblpp.a for the update. |
