Patch Readme
============
The following procedures explain how to copy a software release update
on to the Access Appliance and install the update.

  To download software update directly from the Veritas Support website:
  1. Use the 'List AvailablePatch' command to look for the latest release updates.
  2. Use the 'Download' command to download the release update.
  3. Use the 'List Downloaded' command to list all of the downloaded 
     release updates. Note the name of the update to install.

  To upload a software update from a local computer:
  1. Log in as the user 'admin' to the appliance node.
  2. Use the 'Share Open' command to open the NFS and CIFS shares so the
     appliance node can receive the release updates.
     For NFS: (access-appliance:/inst/patch/incoming)
     For CIFS: (\\access-appliance\incoming_patches)
  3. On the local computer, perform the following steps:
    a. Mount/Map the appropriate NFS/CIFS share.
       For CIFS, you must map using the appliance 'admin' user's credentials.
    b. Download the release update from the Veritas Support website.
    c. Unzip the release update and review the README file in the zip.
    d. Upload the unzipped release update to the mounted share.
    e. Unmap/Unmount the mounted share.
  4. Use the 'Share Close' command to close the NFS and CIFS shares.
  5. Use the 'List Downloaded' command to list all of the downloaded 
     release updates. Note the name of the update to install.

  To install a release update on the Access Appliance node:
  1. Make sure that you follow the correct Access Appliance upgrade process
     before you install the patch to this node.
  2. Use the 'Install' command to install the release update to the node.
     Use the name of the release update that you noted in the procedures
     above when you entered the 'List Downloaded' command.
