> egosh user logon -u Admin -x Admin

> egosh service stop SYMREST

> soamcontrol app disable application_name

b.      Log on to each management host in the cluster (or just one host if you are using a shared file system), back up the following files for recovery purposes:

$EGO_TOP/soam/7.2/linux-x86_64/lib/libsoambase.so

$EGO_TOP/soam/7.2/linux-x86_64/lib64/libsoambase.so

c.      On each management host, copy the sym-7.2.0.2_x86_64_build601505.tar.gz package and extract its contents to the $EGO_TOP installation directory:

> tar zxfo sym-7.2.0.2_x86_64_build601505.tar.gz -C $EGO_TOP

d.      Check the modified time of the following files to verify that this enhancement correctly installed:
