What exactly does "All RSA Authentication Manager 8.3 patch releases are cumulative" mean?

[ChristopherStan]

I've very recently inherited management of several RSA Authentication Manager appliance VMs.  I've noticed they are all running version 8.3 patch 02.  To bring them current, do I have to apply all released patches in order, or does the patch 06 include all fixes in previous patches?  Thanks for clearing this up to a newbie!

'Cumulative'

means all fixes between the major version, and [this patch].

Major versions are the ones with full base installers (8.2.0.0.0, 8.2.1.0.0, 8.3.0.0.0, 8.4.0.0.0)

so yes, 8.3.0.6.0 -includes-

8.3.0.1.0

8.3.0.2.0

8.3.0.3.0

8.3.0.4.0

8.3.0.5.0
