Special Install Instructions:
-----------------------------
 
NOTE 1:  Reboot the system after patch installation.
 
         This patch requires a reboot to restart the fmd(1M) daemon.  Until
         the daemon is restarted it will continue to run the older version of
         the software.
 
         The fmd daemon may instead be restarted manually when convenient.
 
            Example 1. Restart the fmd service after installing
                       this patch:
 
            # svcadm restart svc:/system/fmd:default
