DEACTIVE state
Patches in the DEACTIVE state have been loaded to the memory patch area but have not run in the system
yet. Suppose that the patch file to be loaded has seven patches. After the seven patches successfully pass the
version check and CRC check, they are loaded to the memory patch area and are in the DEACTIVE state. At
this time, the patch states in the system are as shown in Figure 5.

ACTIVE state
Patches in the ACTIVE state are those that have run temporarily in the system and become DEACTIVE after
system reboot. For the seven patches in Figure 5, if yo
u activate the first five patches, their states change from
DEACTIVE to ACTIVE. At this time, the patch states in the system are as shown in Figure 6.
The pat
ches that are in the ACTIVE state are in the DEACTIVE state after system reboot.
