Patch Installation Instructions: 

--------------------------------
 
Refer to the man 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/106326-01
 
The following example removes a patch from a standalone system:
 
        example# patchrm 104945-02
 
For additional examples please see the appropriate man pages.
 
Sun Studio 12 allows finer-grained control of which zone(s) packages are
installed into.  Therefore some care may be needed when patching the
product.  For a default install into the global zone, or an "all-zones"
install, no special options should be required.  However, for an install
into a non-global zone, you should run patchadd in the non-global zone,
and provide the -G flag to patchadd.
 
It is also recommended that for SunOS 5.10 the Install and Patch Utilities
Patch be installed prior to installing this patch:
 
 sparc: 119254-34 or later
  i386: 119255-34 or later

Special Install Instructions: 

-----------------------------
 
None.
