Patch Installation Instructions:
--------------------------------
For the Solaris 10 release, refer to the online manual pages for
instructions on using 'patchadd' and 'patchrm' scripts provided with
Solaris.  Any other special or non-generic installation instructions
should be described below as special instructions.  The following
example installs a patch to a standalone machine:

       example# patchadd /var/spool/patch/110434-07

The following example removes a patch from a standalone system:

       example# patchrm 104945-02

For additional examples please see the appropriate manual pages.


Special Install Instructions:
-----------------------------

Sun introduced a page ordering vnode optimization in Solaris 10_x86.
The optimization includes a new vnode flag, VMODSORT, which when turned on
indicates that the Virtual Memory (VM) should maintain the v_pages list
in an order depending on if a page is modified or unmodified.

Veritas File System (VxFS) can now take advantage of that flag,
which can result in significant performance improvements on operations
that depend on flushing, such as fsync.

This optimization requires that Sun BugID's 6393251 and 6538758 be fixed
in the kernel release on which this patch is being installed.
Enabling VxFS VMODSORT functionality without the correct OS kernel patches
can result in data corruption.

Required operating system patches:

     (Solaris 10 x86)
     125101-10 Kernel Update patch


To enable VxFS VMODSORT functionality, the following line must be added
to the /etc/system file after the vxfs forceload:

        set vxfs:vx_vmodsort=1  * enable vxfs vmodsort

To disable VxFS VMODSORT functionality, the following line must be added
to the /etc/system file after the vxfs forceload:

        set vxfs:vx_vmodsort=0  * disable vxfs vmodsort

You need to use the shutdown command to reboot the system after patch
installation or de-installation:

     shutdown -g0 -y -i6
