Install Instructions:
-------------------------------
1. Download and extract the private zip file to a temporary location on your cluster node. See the table below to determine which file you must download:
       ---------------------------------------------------------------
       | Operating System 	| Name of Private File to Download   |
       ---------------------------------------------------------------
       | Windows 2000      	|  Private_5_0_0229_1391121_w2k.zip  |
       ---------------------------------------------------------------
       | Windows 2003 (x86)     |  Private_5_0_0229_1391121_w2k3.zip | 
       ---------------------------------------------------------------
       | Windows 2003 (x64) 	|  Private_5_0_0229_1391121_x64.zip  |
       ---------------------------------------------------------------
       | Windows 2003 (ia64)    |  Private_5_0_0229_1391121_ia64.zip |
       ---------------------------------------------------------------
   Each .zip file contains the following file:
       -----------------------------------------------
       | Name of the file 	| New Version number |
       -----------------------------------------------
       | had.exe      		|  5.0.229.471       | 
       -----------------------------------------------
2. Make sure that the cluster configuration is in read-only mode.
3. Stop the VERITAS High Availability engine (HAD) on all the cluster nodes. 
   Type the following on the command prompt:
	C:> hastop -all
4. Take backup of the file had.exe from %VCS_HOME%in directory. Copy the extracted file, had.exe to %VCS_HOME%in directory. The variable %VCS_HOME% is       the default installation directory for VCS, typically C:Program FilesVERITAScluster server. The earlier version of the file is replaced.
5. Replace this file on each cluster node that has VCS 5.0 RP1a installed, and then start the VERITAS High Availability engine (HAD) on all the cluster    nodes. Type the following on the command prompt:
   C:> hastart -all
