Patch Installation Instructions:
--------------------------------
For Solaris 2.0-2.6 releases, refer to the Install.info file and/or
the README within the patch for instructions on using the generic
'installpatch' and 'backoutpatch' scripts provided with each patch.

For Solaris 7 release, refer to the man pages for instructions on
using 'patchadd' and 'patchrm' scripts provided with Solaris.
Any other special or non-generic installation instructions should be
described below as special instructions.  The following example
installs a patch to a standalone machine:

       example# patchadd /var/spool/patch/104945-02

The following example removes a patch from a standalone system:

       example# patchrm 104945-02

For additional examples please see the appropriate man pages.


Special Install Instructions: 
----------------------------- 
NOTE 1:	 This patch may contain one or more OEM-specific platform ports.
	 See the appropriate OEM_NOTES file within the patch for information
	 specific to these platforms.
		 
	 DO NOT INSTALL this patch on an OEM system if a corresponding
	 OEM_NOTES file is not present or states not to install, unless the
	 vendor directs otherwise.

NOTE 2:  If possible, perform patch installation in single user mode.  If this 
	 can not be done, we recommend having the system in as quiet a state
	 as possible: no users logged on, no user jobs running.

NOTE 3:  System Boot and Error Messages
         --------------------------------
	 This patch improves the system boot and error message format by 
	 providing a unique identifier, module name, and time stamp to messages  
	 generated by the syslogd(1M) logging facility. In addition, messages 
	 that were previously lost after a system panic and reboot are now 
	 saved. 

	 A msgid(1M) command is provided for OEMs who want to generate message
	 catalogs that map message IDs to message text.  See msgid(1M) for 
	 details.

	 The new message format can be enabled or disabled by setting the msgid
	 property in the log.conf file; see log(7D) for details.  The new 
	 message format is not enabled by default.

	 New System Error Message Format

	 If msgid is set to 0 in the log.conf file, there are no changes in the
	 message format. If msgid is set to 1, there are two changes in the
	 message format:

         1. The text of the message is preceded by a message ID that looks 
	    like this:

            [ID <msgid> <facility>.<priority>]

            For example:

            [ID 123456 kern.notice]

            The <msgid> identifier is described in msgid(1M). The <facility> and
            <priority> tags are described in syslog.conf(4).

         2. If the message originated in the kernel, the kernel module name is
            displayed instead of just 'unix.'

            Previous message format:

            Oct  1 14:07:24 venus unix: alloc: /: file system full

            New message format:

            Oct  1 14:07:24 venus ufs: [ID 845546 kern.notice] alloc: /: file system full \
	    How to Enable or Disable System Message IDs
 
	    1. Become superuser.

            2. Enable or disable system message IDs by setting the msgid property
               in the file /platform/`uname -i`/kernel/drv/log.conf if it exists,
               or /kernel/drv/log.conf otherwise.

               a. To enable system message IDs, add this line:

               msgid=1;

               b. To disable system message IDs, add this line:

               msgid=0;

            3. Save and close the file.

            4. Reboot the system.

NOTE 4:  If you have a Net Install Image created by setup_install_server, please 
         apply this patch to the miniroot.  Refer to the patchadd manpage for
         the exact syntax.

NOTE 5:  To get the complete fix for 4201921, please also install the
         /kernel/sched/TS patch, 107463-01, or its newer version.  

NOTE 6:  To get the complete fix for 4240566 (security: LC_MESSAGES
         buffer overflow), we recommend installing the following
         patches:

         	106794-03 (or newer)   ufsdump and ufsrestore patch
         	107973-01 (or newer)   /usr/sbin/static/rcp patch


	PAE (Physical Address Extension)
        --------------------------------

        WARNING: It is possible that some device drivers may be written with
        assumptions about 4GB being the maximum amount of memory on an Intel
        Architecture system. Sun has tested the systems with PCI device
        drivers written by Sun. Sun's OEM partners intend to test their
        systems with devices that they supply on machines with more than
        4 GB of memory. However, if a third party device driver is added to
        the system by the end user, there is a danger that system will become
        unstable with potentials for PANICs and data corruption. If this
        device is needed, then the PAE support can be forcibly disabled
        as follows:

        Reboot the system.
        Interrupt autoboot by pressing ESC.
        When the Configuration Assistant provides the Boot menu,

           - Choose Boot Tasks (F4).
           - Choose View/Edit Property Settings.
           - Choose Create Properties (F4)
           - Specify Property name as mmu-modlist.
           - Specify Value as mmu32.
           - Go back to Boot Menu and continue booting normally.

NOTE 7. Reboot the system after the Kernel Update patch is installed.  

        It must be noted that upon the initial update of a system running 
        Solaris 7 FCS to 106542-04 or later revisions of the KU patch,
        a reboot(1M) or a halt(1M) should be used, rather than shutdown(1M).
        This is because shutdown hangs due to modifications to the system's
        /etc/inittab resulting from the application of rev04 (or higher) 
        revisions of the Kernel Update patch.

	This behavior, however, is only true on the initial application 
        of these patch revisions.  Subsequent updates should not adversely
	affect shutdown as the modifications would have already been
        in place.
