Thanks for all the replies, here are the basic steps ...... 1) Get the latest patch cluster from sunsolve for your particular platform 2) Edit the patch order file to remove patches that you dont want 3) Change into single user mode if possible 4) Run the patch installer script and use the save feature (done by default) 5) After all patches have been installed reboot the machine 6) Pray Cheers Mark -----Original Message----- From: Johnston Mark Sent: 14 November 2001 03:51 To: sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org Subject: Patching Hi, The servers that I have inherited are way behind on patching ..... what would be the best practise to get them into shape ? Things that I'm thinking about are what if these patches break the system .... do I have to reboot when completed ... do I just install the latest or do I have to install gradually ? Any help appreciated, Mark _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Thu Nov 15 03:42:15 2001
