Procedure

Check the current software version by the following command.

{ctuser@hostname} swhwinfo Enter

Example: 16HW36.4_SP2-0-1.V40_H_HS64_G_GTL

If the output contains SP2-1-x, SP2.1 is already installed. No need to install it.

If the output contains SP2-0-x, SP2.0 is installed. Go to section 4.2 Service Pack 2.1 Installation (on SP2-0-x software).

If the output contains SP1-0-x, SP1.0 is installed. Go to section 4.3 Service Pack 2.1 Installation (on SP1-0-x software).

If the output is just 16HW36.4, no SP is installed. Go to section 4.4 Service Pack 2.1 Installation (on no SP software).

If the output is not equal to 16HW36.4, system software version is different, do not execute the procedure.
Check Exam Split Type.

Type swokinstall -p

If Exam Split option is displayed, execute the following

Type ls –l ~ctuser/ves/.hesModeEnter
