Checking for Last-Minute Information
Support Plus releases often contain last-minute information. Before
proceeding, HP recommends strongly that you read the documentation
for each bundle or patch you want to load. There are several important
sources of information:
• Check the HP IT Resource Center for information about
recommended patches:
http://itrc.hp.com
Select the Maintenance and Support page, then select the
appropriate patching tools.
• Refer to the Support Plus web site for additional information:
http://software.hp.com/SUPPORT_PLUS
• Read the Read Before Installing CD booklet that accompanies the
Support Plus CD. This short document contains up-to-date
information about known problems with patches in current Support
Plus releases.
• Review the patch bundle’s readme file. This file contains additional
installation instructions, notes about problems in current and
previous releases, a list of patches and their dependencies, and
changes since the last release. You can print or view these files
directly from the CD:

cdrom /HWEnable11i.readme
Each bundle readme file is also available in HTML format. These
files contain hyperlinks to the patch text files. You can enter a URL
into a web browser to view these files directly from the CD:
file:/
cdrom /HWEnable11i.readme.html
• Read the patch’s accompanying text file in the /
cdrom /TEXT_FILES
directory. This file provides detailed information about the patch.
Patch text files are also included with individual patches that you
retrieve from HP. You can print or view these directly from the CD:
