INSTALLING THE PATCH
--------------------
This package contains self-extracting files that are specific to the processor architecture and operating system version.
Download the appropriate hotfix executable to a temporary location on your system.
You can install this hotfix using the GUI or the CLI. Instructions for both these options are provided below.


To install the hotfix on server systems using the GUI
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Double-click the hotfix executable file to extract its contents to a default location on the cluster node.
By default, the files are extracted to:
"%programfiles(x86)%\Common Files\Veritas Shared\WxRTPrivates"

The Hotfix Installer Wizard is automatically launched after the files are extracted.

2. Click "Next" on the Welcome screen. 
The 'Hotfix Installation Task' screen lists the tasks that are performed by the installer.

3. Click "Install Hotfix" to begin the hotfix installation. 
The status of each installation task is updated as it completes.

4. After the tasks are complete, click "Next" and then click "Finish" to complete the installation process.

5. If this is a clustered configuration (VCS or MSCS), perform steps 1-4 on all the other nodes in the cluster.


To install the hotfix on server systems using the CLI
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Navigate to the following location at the command prompt:
"C:\temp"

2. Run one of the following commands to extract the hotfix files to the default location:
<Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber_OS_Platform> .exe /x
or
<Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber_OS_Platform> .exe /extract

3. Navigate to the default location where the hotfix files are extracted.
By default, the files are extracted to:
"%programfiles(x86)%\Common Files\Veritas Shared\WxRTPrivates\<Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber> "

4. Run the following command to install the hotfix:
VxHF.exe /install:<Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber>  /silent
Here, <Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber> is the name of the hotfix file excluding the OS, platform, and .exe extension.

Additional Notes
