Installation Instructions
Important: During the installation of HFXCC3165, the Station Manager HealthCheck and the allocation of new Microsoft� security update packages must be done manually. Please ensure that you complete all steps in Installation Instructions fully.
If you previously started to install the security update but cancelled the operation, follow the installation instructions in the 'Installing after cancelling a previous install' section below.
Download HFXCC3165.
Log on to your Forest Root domain controller as Administrator (not as a system administrator) and copy the security update to a temporary location (for example D:\temp).
Run the security update by double-clicking the self-extracting executable file (HFXCC3165.exe). The security update will extract files automatically and run the RM Installation Assistant to begin the installation.
When prompted, click Continue.
The installation will proceed automatically. When prompted that the RM Installation Assistant has finished, click Finish. Note: After installation at a server, the server will need to be restarted for the Microsoft� security updates to be applied fully. Ensure the server has restarted successfully before continuing.
Repeat steps two to five at all your other Community Connect 3 domain controllers.
Repeat steps two to five at any Member servers (eg DAMMS or MIS servers) on the network.
When all Community Connect 3 domain controllers have had HFXCC3165 applied, log on to the Forest Root domain controller server in each site as the Administrator user (not as a system adminstrator). Run Windows� Explorer� and browse to D:\RMNetwork\RMManage\Station Manager. Double-click the file Healthcheck.exe, and select OK to start the Health Check, and OK again when it has completed.
HFXCC3165 provides new workstation packages but does not automatically allocate them. You should allocate these new packages to all your workstations at your earliest convenience. Note: If you choose to allocate the packages at a later time, you must still complete all of steps one to eight above now, including running the Station Manager Health Check.
The new security packages are listed as available packages as follows in the RM Management Console:
System Packages
Windows XP Security Update KB914388
Windows XP Security Update KB917159

Application Packages
** Windows XP Security Update KB917283

Once you have allocated the packages to workstations, restart the workstations for the Microsoft� security update to be installed.
