    - A cdrom image for this patch 


Before applying the patch:
    
    1) Stop the data collection on the Windows endpoints.
    2) Stop the APM agent on the Windows endpoints.

Applying the Patch:
  
    1)  Extract the patch:

        On a Unix system:
        
        Extract the contents into a scratch directory. For the 
        purpose of this note, assume that the symbol $PATCH points 
        to this directory.

        # cd $PATCH
        # tar -xvf 2.0.1-APM-0003.tar

        On a Windows NT system:

        Extract the contents into a scratch directory. For the 
        purpose of this release note, assume that the symbol %PATCH% 
        points to this directory. 

        > %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\Tivoli\setup_env
        > X:              
          ^-- 'X' is drive letter where %PATCH% is found
        > cd %PATCH%
        > tar -xvf 2.0.1-APM-0003.tar

        NOTE:  If you are extracting the tar image on a Windows NT
        system, you will find an executable for tar in the TME
        installation on Windows NT under bin/w32-ix86/tools/tar.exe.


    2)  To use Software Installation Service (SIS) for the patch 
        installation, follow these instructions. Otherwise skip to 
        step 3 below.

        NOTE: SIS can install Tivoli products on any hardware
              platform supported by Tivoli, but there are some
              hardware platforms on which SIS cannot be run. Please
              check your SIS User's Manual for the list of platforms
              on which SIS can be run.

        NOTE: You must have the install_product and super 
              authorization roles to successfully install this patch.

        a)  From the Tivoli Desktop, pull down 
            Desktop --> Install --> Software Installation Service.

            Dialog. (NOTE: This should yield an "X" in the cell(s)
