Installing Fixpacks on Webshpere in Windows
first of all you go download your fixpack from the place. then you put it in this directory
D:\Rational\SDP\6.0\runtimes\base_v6\updateinstaller\maintenance
after that you should backup your profiles (in fact the updater will tell you to but you can ignore it if you are brave) in D:\Commerce\6.0\wasprofile\bin to do this you open a cmd line and navigate to said directory then run backupConfig.bat file.zip
once the backup is complete (or if you opted to ignore it) you then back out of D:\Rational\SDP\6.0\runtimes\base_v6\updateinstaller\maintenance to D:\Rational\SDP\6.0\runtimes\base_v6\updateinstaller\
doubleclick update.exe
a wizard will start and you can "Next>" then browse to the new .pak file that you want to update. once you find the file and click "next" it will warn you to backup your profile. After that just sit and wait for things to happen.
oh you will need to shut down your server and instance of websphere if it is running.
