Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filenames] where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the desired RPMs. Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. IMPORTANT: For this errata, use the 'up2date' command (with no arguments). DO NOT partially upgrade the packages for this errata as this can result in a non-consistent set of packages being installed. The update will cause applications to be undeployed from the server. Redeploy all desired applications after the upgrade -- rerun GenIC for faster deployment by the server as it will not have to replace stubs from the previous version on the fly. The 'jeremie' protocol option for the JOnAS J2EE Application Server is now deprecated and unsupported. If your JOnAS server is using the 'jeremie' protocol option, make sure you change the configuration to use the 'jrmp' protocol instead before restarting the server. A server configured to use the 'jeremie' protocol may not function properly after the upgrade.
