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 7-9 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:
-----------------------------
* To get the complete fix for 4974501, patch 117098-01, or higher, must be
  installed.
 
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).
 
After the patch is installed on the SC, all domains with 1200 Mhz system boards
must run at least a default level POST.  Use "setkeyswitch standby" and
"setkeyswitch on" to boot all domains containing 1200 Mhz system boards or use
DR to individually disconnect and connect each 1200 Mhz system board.
