Patch Installation Instructions:
--------------------------------
 
tar.gz Patch Installation:
--------------------------
 
   See the patch installation instructions below before installing this
   patch!
 
   Patches in 'tar.gz' format cannot be installed with 'patchadd' on Solaris
   systems. The patch is installed by unpacking the 'tar.gz' file(s) in this
   directory in &lt;install_dir&gt;. &lt;install_dir&gt; is usually your &lt;sge_root&gt;
   directory. The installation of this patch later is not visible with the
   "showrev -p" command on Solaris.
 
   This patch cannot be backed out. You may want to make a backup copy of the
   files  before installing this patch since the files will be overwritten.
 
   Please read "Install Instructions" later in this file and carry out all
   steps before you unpack the 'tar.gz' file(s) included in this patch.
 
   This patch in 'tar.gz' format should not be installed if the original
   package has been installed with 'pkgadd' on Solaris. If the original 
   installation used packages ('pkgadd') utility, install the available 
   patches for N1 Grid Engine 6; refer to the patch matrix below.
 
   The patch is installed by user root by unpacking the file(s) in the
   directory where the original package has been installed:
 
      # cd &lt;install_dir&gt;
      # gzip -dc &lt;patchid&gt;/&lt;targzfile&gt; | tar xvpf -
 
   After installing the patch, you should correct the file permissions if
   your Sun Grid Engine installation is installed as an "admin user" system:
 
      # cd &lt;sge_root&gt;
      # util/setfileperm.sh &lt;sge_root&gt;
 
 
Patch requirements and patch matrix for N1 Grid Engine 6 packages
-----------------------------------------------------------------
 
   The patches below update a N1 Grid Engine 6 distribution to N1 Grid
   Engine 6 Update 8 (N1GE 6.0u8). The "-help" output of most commands will
   print a version string "N1GE 6.0u8" after applying the patch.
 
   All packages of a N1 Grid Engine 6 distribution must have the same patch
   level (exception for ARCo - see requirements for ARCo in the ARCo patches
   README's). Please refer to the patch matrix below which updates the
   distribution to most recent patch level.
 
   It is not supported and possible to mix different patch levels of
   binaries and the "common" package in a single N1 Grid Engine cluster.

Special Install Instructions:
-----------------------------
 
   Content
   -------
   Patch Installation
      Shutting down the N1 Grid Engine qmaster and scheduler daemons
      Installing the patch and restarting the software
 
 
   Patch Installation
   ------------------
   These installation instructions assume that you are running a N1 Grid Engine
   Update 8 cluster (called "the software"). The patch only contains a new qmaster
   binary. If you are running the software in a heterogenous environment (mix of
   different binary architectures), you need to apply the patch installation only
   for the qmaster binary architecture. See the patch matrix above for details
   about the available patches.
 
   A. Shutting down the N1 Grid Engine qmaster and scheduler daemons
   -----------------------------------------------------------------
 
   You need to shutdown the qmaster and scheduler daemon.
 
   Login to your qmaster machine and stop qmaster and scheduler:
 
      # /etc/init.d/sgemaster stop
 
   Now verify with the 'ps' command that all N1 Grid Engine daemons are stopped.
 
   B. Installing the patch and restarting the software
   ---------------------------------------------------
 
   Now install the patch by installing the patch with "patchadd" or by
   unpacking the 'tar.gz' files included in this patch as outlined above.
 
      Restarting the software
      -----------------------
 
      Please login to your qmaster machine and execution hosts and enter:
 
         # /etc/init.d/sgemaster
