stupid question: installing a hotfix onto of a hotfix

[graysky]

What happens when one tries to install a hotfix that was previously installed on the machine? I'm assuming nothing.

Thanks all!

More than you need to know to answer the question: I'd like to apply the current hotfixes to a machine via a batch file. I grabbed a bunch from the hotfixes thread and placed them in my /i386/update so the next unattended CD I make will have them and is current. I want to be sure the machine I apply these to gets all the hotfixes in my /i386/update (including the current ones); I'd like to have each run even though some of them were likely installed on the machine when the unattended CD called them via my svcpack.inf at install.

Reinstalling a hotfix that was already correctly installed doesn't do anything except increasing the size of the log file

I thought so... thanks for the information!
