A hot fix is a workaround or solution to a single customer-reported issue. Hot
fixes are issue-specific, and therefore not released to all customers. Windows hot
fixes include
a Setup program, while non-Windows hot fixes do not (typically you need to stop the
program
daemons, copy the file to overwrite its counterpart in your installation, and restart
the
daemons).
By default, the Security Agents can
install hot fixes. If you do not want Security Agents to
install hot fixes, change agent update
settings in the web console by going to ,
click tab.
If you unsuccessfully attempt to deploy a hot fix on the Trend Micro Apex One server, use the Touch
Tool to change the time stamp of the hot fix. This causes Trend Micro Apex One to interpret the hot
fix file as new, which makes the server attempt to automatically
deploy the hot fix again. For details about this tool, see Running the Touch Tool for Security Agent Hot
Fixes.
