Per today's TC call, this is a list
of package types that we had defined. Comments?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BaseInstall - A package that contains
the initial release of a product.
CriticalDeltaFixPack - Similar to a
delta fix pack except that this package consists of a collection of selected
fixes (test fixes, interim fixes, etc) which are usually fixes of defects
with high severity.
CriticalFixPack - Similar to fix pack
except that this package consists of a collection of selected fixes (test
fixes, interim fixes, etc.) which are usually fixes of defects with high
severity.
DeltaFixPack - Similar to fix pack except
this package is not cumulative since GA, refresh pack, or manufacturing
refresh.
FixPack - A fix pack is cumulative,
i.e. contains all the fixes shipped in previous maintenance to the release
including previous fix packs.
ManufacturingRefresh - A package that
is a product replacement, containing all previously delivered maintenance
plus, optionally, new fixes not delivered previously. If it contains new
function, then the modification level of V.R.M should be incremented.
RecommendedServiceUpgrade - Cross product
tested recommended service upgrade (RSU). A cross product/component consolidated,
tested, and recommended set of service to a platform (or multi-platforms
for distributed). Contains all latest product/component interim fixes
(distributed), fix packs, PTFs, and refresh packs. If it contains new function,
then the modification level of V.R.M should be incremented.
RefreshPack - Same definition as fix
pack, but a refresh pack also contains new function. The package should
increment the modification level of the V.R.M.
