Upgrade F5 Deploy Hotfix deployment

We are upgrading our LTM's to 16.1.4.1 Build 5 and had a question about installing the hotfix.  Should I install the hotfix intially when I upgrade the system?  Thanks, Joe

Hi jomedusa,

Yes, you have to install the hotfix before updating your system and test if the solution applied in the hotfix works correctly.

The steps are:

1. install the SO 16.1.4.1 base in a new disk partition for example disk 1.3.

2. Install the Hotfix in the same disk partition 1.3.

3. boot the partition 1.3 and test the new SO and Hotfix.

Hope it works.
