This patch addresses the issue of erroneous MD5 mismatches of the 
/etc/tuned/active_profile file reported on some workload VMs on SUTs running a
large number of tiles or that are under heavy load. To use this patch you 
must modify your template VM(s) and all harness/SUT VMs already created in your 
test environment. 

We recommend that this patch be applied once you have created your 
svdc-director VM, as it will be able to assign an IP address and hostname to 
your template VM (hostname=svdc-template) as well as any other harness VMs that 
have already been created. You should copy the patch tarball to a convenient 
location on the director (e.g. /root) and then follow these steps on all 
existing VMs and template VMs (the VM(s) must be running and accessible to the 
svdc-director):

1. As root, copy the file SPECvirt_datacenter2021-p1.tgz to /root on the VM:
   scp SPECvirt_datacenter2021-p1.tgz root@[Target VM]:/root

2. Unpack the tarball on the VM:
   ssh root@[Target VM] "tar zxf SPECvirt_datacenter2021-p1.tgz"

Note: You also need to apply the patch to your svdc-director VM.

Note: This patch is optional for SPECvirt Datacenter 2021 v1.0. However if it 
is used, you *must* apply it to *all* templates, harness VMs, and workload VMs 
in your environment.
