How to install the patch?

Install the MS_HW_SunXscf.hdf file in the $PATROL_HOME/lib/MS_HW_hdf directory and re-initialize Hardware Sentry KM ([right-click] on the main Hardware icon > [KM Commands] > [Reinitialize�]).

It is very important to reinitialize the KM and not the PATROL Agent to avoid false alerts about missing devices.
