Patch Installation Instructions:
-------------------------------- 
Refer to the Install.info file for instructions on using the
generic 'installpatch' and 'backoutpatch' scripts provided with
each patch.  Any other special or non-generic installation
instructions should be described below as special instructions.

Special Install Instructions:
----------------------------- 
Note 1:
	Reboot in order for fix to take effect.
Note 2:
	The steps below assume the patch tarfile has been placed into 
	the ADMIN_LOW subdirectory of /tmp (/tmp is an MLD) and the 
	patch tarfile label is configured to ADMIN_LOW. Keep in mind, 
	after rebooting, contents in /tmp directory are removed; if saving
	the patch tarfile is desired, select another MLD such as /var/tmp.
 
      1) Login as a user authorized to assume the admin and root roles. Assume 
	 the admin role.
 
      2) Create a subdirectory for the patch and copy the patch tar file
	 into it. 
 
	 # cd /tmp
	 # mkdir <patch-dir>
	 # mv 123456-01.tar.Z ./<patch-dir>
	 # cd <patch-dir>
 
         <patch-dir> is the directory containing the patch itself.
 
      3) Uncompress the patch tarfile by typing:
 
	 # uncompress 123456-01.tar.Z
 
      4) Extract the patch by typing:
 
         # tar xvf 123456-01.tar
 
      5) cd into the patch directory:
 
	 # cd 123456-01 
	 # pwd
	 /tmp/patch-dir/123456-01
 
      	The tar file 123456-01.tar in this directory requires the "T" flag 
	for tar file extraction in order to preserve its file security 
	attributes. Failure to use this option will cause the patch 
	installation to terminate.
 
      6) Extract the patch by typing:
 
         # tar xvTf 123456-01.tar
 
      7) Assume the root role, cd into the directory where the patch resides.
 
	 # cd /tmp/<patch-dir>/123456-01
 
      8) Install the patch by typing:
 
         <dir>installpatch <patch-dir>
 
         where <dir> is the directory containing installpatch, and
         <patch-dir> is the directory containing the patch itself.
 
	 # pwd
	 /tmp/<patch-dir>/123456-01
	 # ./installpatch .
 
Special Backout Instructions:
----------------------------
 
      1) Login as a user authorized to assume the root role, assume root role.
 
      2) Change directory to /var/sadm/patch 
 
         # cd /var/sadm/patch
 
      3) Backout patch by typing:
 
         <patch-id>/backoutpatch <patch-id>
 
         where <patch-id> is the patch number.
