Patch Installation Instructions:
--------------------------------
For Solaris 7-9 releases, 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:
-----------------------------
 
Follow these steps when installing on the SC:
1. Record which SC is the main SC.
2. Disable failover on MAIN SC (setfailover off).
3. Stop the SMS processes on both SC's simultaneously.
        /etc/init.d/sms stop
4. Install the patch on both SC's.
5. Start the SMS processes on the previous main SC first.
        /etc/init.d/sms start
6. After all the sms processes have started (i.e. you're able to run the
   showenvironment command and get all the system's status),
   start the SMS processes on the Spare SC next.
7. Enable failover on MAIN SC (setfailover on).
