Step 1: Review fix cover letters prior to fix installation
Determine if there are any special instructions that you should be aware of before you install your fixes.
You should always review your cover letters to determine if there are any special instructions. If you are installing a cumulative PTF package, you should read the instructions that come with that package. If it is not a cumulative package, you should display and print your fix cover letters because they can contain special instructions. If you read your cover letters, you can avoid problems that could result in time-consuming recovery.
If there are any preinstallation special instructions in any of the cover letters, follow those instructions first.
