If the Java service is packaged correctly then SMP will only install the most recent PTF that you request. However, it will also install the FUNCTION. That will not cause duplicate elements.

When we tried to start PFA, it failed. A quick search showed that PFA requires the 31 bit version of java. I ordered it using shopzseries. The resulting package was over 13GB. It looks like I have the base version and over 50 PTF's that upgrade it to the current version. Can I prevent SMP/E from installing all of those versions, and just install the final fix? >From past experience I know that each PTF is a full replacement of the who >java SDK.
