[2] The hotfix installation requires stopping the Storage Agent (vxvm) 
service which will cause the 'Volume Manager Disk Group' (VMDg) resources 
in a cluster environment (MSCS or VCS) to fault. If this hotfix is 
being applied to a server in cluster, make sure any cluster groups 
containing a VMDg resource are taken offline or moved to another node in 
the cluster before proceeding.

To install the hotfix using the GUI
------------------------------------
1. Double click the hotfix executable file to extract the contents to a default location on the cluster node.
On 32-bit systems, the files are extracted to:
"%commonprogramfiles%\Veritas Shared\WxRTPrivates"

On 64-bit systems, the files are extracted to:
"%commonprogramfiles(x86)%\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 prompted to restart the server, do so.

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


To install the hotfix using the command line
---------------------------------------------
1. At the command prompt, run one of the following commands to extract the hotfix files to the default location:
C:\temp><Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber_OS_Platform>.exe /x
or
C:\temp><Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber_OS_Platform>.exe /extract

For example, to extract this hotfix on a 32-bit Windows 2003 system, the command is:
C:\temp>Hotfix_5_1_20046_87_2643293_w2k3_x86.exe /x

2. From the command prompt, navigate to the default location where the hotfix files are extracted.
On 32-bit systems, the files are extracted to:
"%commonprogramfiles%\Veritas Shared\WxRTPrivates\<Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber>"

On 64-bit systems, the files are extracted to: 
"%commonprogramfiles(x86)%Veritas Shared\WxRTPrivates\<Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber>"

3. At the command prompt, 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.

For example, to install this hotfix on a 32-bit Windows 2003 system, the command is:
VxHF.exe /install:Hotfix_5_1_20046_87_2643293 /silent

Hotfix Executable Name is Hotfix_5_1_20046_87_2643293_w2k3_x86.exe.
When installing the hotfix, the <Hotfix_BuildVersion_IncidentNumber> name is Hotfix_5_1_20046_87_2643293.
(note how the "_w2k3_x86.exe" is excluded).

4. Follow the instructions displayed in the command prompt to complete the hotfix installation.

5. If prompted to restart the server, do so at this time.

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