Hotfix for GRANITE-61551 Installation

[AEM_Dan]

I can't find any installation instructions for Hotfix for GRANITE-61551.  Does it get deployed on both publish and author instances?  Also, no documentation for AEM 6.5 SITES Hotfix on SP23 SITES-33973.  I assume it needs to be deployed as well on a SP23 instance since the GRANITE-61551 hotfix does not appear to include 33973.

Hi @AEM_Dan ,

Hotfix GRANITE-61551 is an AEM Granite platform fix and must be installed on both Author and Publish instances to maintain platform consistency and avoid replication/runtime conflicts. Since it is delivered as a standard AEM package (.zip), installation is done via CRX Package Manager and should follow Adobe best practices—apply first on lower environments and validate OSGi bundle states post-install. The SITES-33973 hotfix for AEM 6.5 SP23 is not included in GRANITE-61551 and must be installed separately on SP23 environments to ensure Sites-related stability.

Thanks & Regards,

Vishal

Hello @AEM_Dan 

SITES-33973 Hotfix (RTE fullscreen dialog regression):
- Install only on: AEM Author instance
- Restart required: No

GRANITE-61551 Hotfix (security vulnerability fixes):
- Install on: Both AEM Author and AEM Publish instances
- Restart required: Yes, after installation

Now that service pack 24 is released are these still necessary or are they rolled into SP24?

Also, does Hotfix on SP24 SITES-36229 SITES-35228 get applied to both author and publish?
