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 7-8 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).
 
Note:
  When upgrading from 112488-05 (or lower) to 112488-06 (or higher),
  all domains must undergo a setkeyswitch standby/on for the fix
  to 4676870 to be put into effect.
 
  When applying 112488-07 (or higher) the following lines should
  be removed from any/all .postrc files on the System Controllers:
 
     no_asic_lbist axq
     no_asic_lbist sdi
 
Note #2:
 
  This patch is for SMS 1.2. It installs on the SC. It should be installed
  on the main and spare sc's. It prevents certain dstops on domains on
  12K's and 15K's. However, even when installed on the System
  Controller, the patch is not effective until a hpost is run against the
  domain. In other words, a maintenance window needs to be set up
  to bring the domain down and setkeyswitch -on run against the
  domain to cause a hpost to run on the domain.
