        Solaris patch 113027-04 if running Solaris 9
        Solaris patch 117002-02 if running Solaris 8
 
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).
