you do not have access to the media, complete the following steps:

The standard HP-UX patch bundles index page lists the release dates for the current patch

on that particular date.
NOTE: The standard HP-UX patch bundles are cumulative. If you do not find an older bundle,
you can select the latest 11.11 release and use the latest version of the particular patch bundle.
