INSTALLATION NOTES: 1) Install this kit with the dupatch utility that is included in the patch kit. You may need to baseline your system if you have manually changed system files on your system. The dupatch utility provides the baselining capability. 2) The integrated ERP kits provided in this EA contain the corrections from SSRT1-68u and SSRT1-69u, and can be installed by customers who have or have not installed the SSRT1-68u and SSRT1-69u ERP. The kits indicated in this EA are built so that they will install over the SSRT1-68u and SSRT1-69u corrections. However, installation will be blocked if any other patches have been installed that affect the files delivered in the SSRT1-68u and SSRT1-69u kits. 3) This ERP kit will NOT install over any Customer Specific Patches (CSPs) which have file intersections with this ERP kit. Contact your normal Service Provider for assistance if the installation of this ERP kit is blocked by any of your installed CSPs.
