Install/Uninstall Instructions:

Apply this hotfix to Management Server node.
This hotfix can be applied to Data Insight version 2.5RU2 (2.5.2) HF3 only.

FILE AFFECTED BY THIS PATCH:

INSTALL_ROOT\DataInsight\bin\mxdfsscan.exe
INSTALL_ROOT\DataInsight\pdb\mxdfsscan.pdb

By default, value of INSTALL_ROOT is "C:\Program Files\Symantec". 

NOTE: Please keep a backup of the files  you are about to patch. This will be
required in case you want to roll back the patch.

Steps:

    Log on to Management Server machine with Administrative privileges
    and perform the following steps:

	Unzip the patch files to a temporary folder. In this folder, locate the
	"patches" folder. The patch contains files for both 32bit and 64bit installs.
	Select the appropriate folder based on the processor architecture of your
	server. Files provided in the patch are in the same directory hierarchy as those
	present on your system at: "INSTALL_ROOT\DataInsight".
	Example: If you unzip hotfix to C:\temp, it will create the following folders 
	under C:\temp:
	C:\TEMP
	+---README
	+---patches
	    +---32bit
	        +---bin
	        +---pdb
	    +---64bit
	        +---bin
	        +---pdb

	If you are patching a 32 bit server installed at "C:\Program Files\Symantec\DataInsight",
	copy entire contents under "C:\temp\patches\32bit" to 
	"C:\Program Files\Symantec\DataInsight", replacing the original files with those
	from the patch.
	

Additional Notes:
- Apply this hotfix to Data Insight 2.5 Release Update 2 (2.5.2) HF3 only.
- You need to install this patch only on the Management-Server 
  if you intend to run mxdfsscan.exe only from the Management-Server. 
  Mxdfsscan.exe discovers the DFS environment as long as the node where it is executed from 
  can access the DFS-name space. Hence, mxdfsscan.exe does not need to be run on 
  other DataInsight servers (Indexers and Collectors). 
  If you intend to run mxdfsscan.exe on other servers for any reason, 
  then you need to install this patch on the other servers too.
