To install the service pack

Warning

Before applying this service pack, make sure that you have an OS backup or a VM snapshot of all affected systems. If this is not possible, make sure that you back up the individual TrueSight Operations Management components.

On some Windows computers, after downloading the service pack installation files from the BMC Electronic Product Distribution (EPD) site, you may be required to unblock the .zip files before extracting them.

  1. Right-click the downloaded .zip file and select Properties.
  2. On the General tab, select Unblock.
  3. Click OK to save changes and then extract the installation files.

    Note

    Due to a known Windows limitation, if the extracted file path is too long, the products fail to deploy. To avoid this issue, do the following:

    1. Create a folder in the root location. For example, C:\<folderName>.
    2. Download and extract the installation files to this folder.

    Alternatively, using a third-party tool such as WinRAR also resolves this issue.

To install service pack 11.3.05, follow the sequence at Applying service packs.
