                                     CUSTOM HOTFIX INSTALLATION

************************************************************************************************

Please suggest If I am wrong

Below procedure is successfully tested by me.

File Name: Custom_Hotfix.tgz

Now, most of the custom_hotfix installation now we can be done by CPUSE.

NOTE: Please check the procedure before doing this, the procedure may vary.

Below is the method to achieve this.

PROCEDURE 01

STEP 01 : clish> installer import local /var/tmp/ Custom_Hotfix.tgz   (var/tmp location is a example)

NOTE: Interactive mode is enabled. Press CTRL + C to exit (this will not stop the operation)

STEP 02: After successfully imported.

clish> show installer packages (You able to see the all the installed package like Jumbo hotfix, legacy Hotfix,...)

STEP 03: clish>installer verify <press TAB> (You able to see the custom hotfix file, you need to select the option base on the custom hotfix number like 1 or 2 or 3 ...)

EXAMPLE: clish>installer verify 2

NOTE: Interactive mode is enabled. Press CTRL + C to exit (this will not stop the operation)

STEP 04: After successfully verified.

clish>  installer install <press TAB> (You able to see the custom hotfix file, you need to select the option base on the custom hotfix number like 1 or 2 or 3 ...)

EXAMPLE: clish>installer install 2

After that: The machine will automatically reboot after install.

Do you want to continue? ([y]es / [n]o / [s]uppress reboot)  y                     (type y)

STEP 05: After rebooting verify the Custom_Hotfix installed properly or not.

clish> show installer packages   (see the status for confirmation)

Note that almost no hotfixes going forward will have the legacy installation script but will use CPUSE.

The Steps you have outlined are the Offline Hotfix implementation via CPUSE - CLISH Method.

CPUSE Is now able to handle most Legacy Packages, as well, so Clients should always be using CPUSE, as you have outlined above.

This method, or the Gaia Portal - GUI (Software and Updates Section) will work the same for this functionality.
