Deploying SFHA hot fixes
In the Management Server console, you can use Patch Installer Add-on to install supported hot fixes for Storage Foundation High Availability (SFHA) products. Supported SFHA hot fixes are shown in the console as VOM deployable.
Note: Patch Installer Add-on is not required to deploy Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager hot fixes.
Some hot fixes require a system reboot. During hot fix deployment, you can specify whether or not the system is automatically rebooted after the hot fix is installed.
Before you begin, review the prerequisites.
If you want to customize a hot fix by adding custom perl scripts, you should perform that task before deployment.
