Infoblox periodically releases hotfixes that contain resolved issues. Only superusers can apply hotfixes through Grid Manager. When you install hotfixes through Grid Manager, you can apply them to the Grid Master and All Grid members, the Grid Master only, the Grid Master and Grid Master Candidates, or selected Grid members. Note that each hotfix addresses specific issues.
Infoblox recommends that you verify the hotfix before you apply it to ensure that it is the correct version.
After you apply a hotfix, Grid manager displays the hotfix status in the Upload Status bar. In addition, you can view the history of the most recent list of applied hotfixes in the Hotfix History dialog box. 

Note

  • A hotfix installation may fail if there is a mismatch in the NIOS software versions or if a hotfix image fails to meet the software or hardware restrictions.
  • All hotfixes are released with a hotfix release form. It is mandatory that you refer to the hotfix release form before applying the hotfix. This is important because a post installation action, such as a restart or reboot, might be needed depending on the nature of the hotfix. For important instructions and detailed information regarding hotfixes, see the hotfix release form. For important instructions and detailed information regarding hotfixes, see the NIOS Consolidated Hotfix Release Notes that is released with every consolidated hotfix release.
