Install and Uninstall Instructions for the VxFS patches: 
-----------------------------------------------------------

1.1. To install the VxFS 5.0-MP1RP4 patch:

a) To install this patch on a CVM cluster, install it one
 system at a time so that all the nodes are not brought down
 simultaneously.
b) The VxFS 5.0(GA) must be installed before applying these
  patches.
c) To verify the VERITAS file system level, execute:
     # swlist -l product | egrep -i 'VRTSvxfs'
  VRTSvxfs     5.0.01.04        VERITAS File System  

Note: VRTSfsman is a corequisite for VRTSvxfs. So, VRTSfsman also
needs to be installed with VRTSvxfs.

    # swlist -l product | egrep -i 'VRTS'

  VRTSvxfs      5.0.01.04      Veritas File System
  VRTSfsman     5.0.01.02      Veritas File System Manuals
d) All prerequisite/corequisite patches must be installed. The Kernel patch 
  requires a system reboot for both installation and removal.
e) To install the patch, execute the following command:
# swinstall -x autoreboot=true -s <patch_directory> PHKL_38763 PHCO_39103 PHCO_39104 

If the patch is not registered, you can register it
using the following command:

# swreg -l depot <patch_directory>

The <patch_directory> is the absolute path where the patch resides.

1.2. To remove the VxFS 5.0-MP1RP4 patch:

a) Execute the following command:

# swremove -x autoreboot=true PHKL_38763 PHCO_39103 PHCO_39104
