Foreword
Hotfix
A hotfix provides a consistent set of changes, mainly error fixes.
In concrete terms, a hotfix installation program is an .EXE file.
Example: HOPEX_V2_CP01_HF01.01.exe
The .hotfixes provided for HOPEX Software are cumulative.
Example: Hotfix 01.03 also includes fixes of Hotfix 01.01 and Hotfix 01.02.
Each hotfix is related to a corrective patch (CP) level.
Example: Hotfix 01.03 applies to HOPEX V2 CP01.0.
As a consequence, verify the expected patch level is installed before installing a CP.
Before proceeding, make sure that, for all the HOPEX environments to upgrade:
• Data is backed up (physical backup).
• The password of the login System is known.
This is very important since it will be requested to login with the login System.
Note that a .MSP files can be extracted from the .EXE file using the command /E
Example:
HOPEX_V2_CP01_HF01.02.exe /E
