Hotfix for GRANITE-61551 Installation

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,
