The update process looks for the software revision and conflicting information before loading. If the software revision of the update does not match the applications revision, a message shows in the status section of the GUI that explains that the update cannot be loaded.
If the message Patch_tst_M4_01 = PA conflicts with patch_tst_M4_03-PA-1 appears, you must delete the most recently installed update from the system before you load the new update. See Removing software updates.
Do any other patch load instructions that are documented in the “Read Me” file of the Service Pack.
Restart the system. When prompted, log on as sdc for user.

Do a check scan to make sure that the system is functioning properly. See Doing a check scan.
