NOTE Delivering HP-UX Standard Patch Bundles
In the March 2004 release of HP-UX 11i v2, HP delivered a Hardware
Enablement (HWEnable11i) bundle and a Quality Pack (QPKBASE) patch
bundle. In this new release, September 2004, HP delivered required
patches in BUNDLE11i. BUNDLE11i supersedes the March 2004
HWEnable11i and QPKBASE patches. Therefore, you may notice that there
are no HWEnable11i and QPKBASE patch bundles in this release if you run
the swlist command.
If you run swlist -i you may still see the bundle tags for HWEnable11i
and QPKBASE. This simply indicates that these patch bundles have been
superseded (but not deleted).
In subsequent releases, March 2005 onward, HP will retain the
BUNDLE11i patches and provide superseding patches in the HWEnable11i
and QPKBASE patch bundles.
