Directions to apply fix:  

NOTE:  YOU MUST FIRST DOWNLOAD THE EFIX INSTALLER TOOL IN ORDER TO INSTALL AN EFIX.
       The eFix Installer can be downloaded from the following link:
       http://www-3.ibm.com/software/webservers/appserv/support/index.html

1) Create temporary "efix" directory to store the jar file:
             UNIX: /tmp/WebSphere/efix
          Windows: c:\temp\WebSphere\efix

2) Copy jar file to the directory

3) Shutdown WebSphere

4) Follow the eFix installation instructions that are packaged with the eFix Installer on how to install the eFix.

5) Restart WebSphere

6) The temp directory may be removed but the jar file should be saved.  Do not remove 
   any files created and stored in the <WASHOME>/WebSphere/AppServer/efix/<efix> directories.
   These files are required if an efix is to be removed.





Directions to remove fix:  
NOTE:  EFIXES MUST BE REMOVED IN THE ORDER THEY WERE APPLIED.  DO NOT REMOVE AN EFIX UNLESS
     ALL EFIXES APPLIED AFTER IT HAVE FIRST BEEN REMOVED.  YOU MAY REAPPLY ANY REMOVED EFIX.

Example:  If your system has efix1, efix2, and efix3 applied in that order and efix2 is to be
          removed, efix3 must be removed first, efix2 removed, and efix3 re-applied.
