INSTALLATION

1. The hot fix downloaded is a tar file called B61002lx.tar.

2. Extract the contents of B61002lx.tar into a temporary directory. Assuming the tar file is downloaded to the user's $HOME directory, execute the following

> cd /tmp
> tar -xvf $HOME/B61002lx.tar
This will extract the contents of the tar file to a /tmp/B61002ux directory:
jazxfbrs-9.2-1.10.x86_64.rpm

3. Since this is a server-side install, FTP or SCP the RPM file to a location on the target Teradata Database server.
