Quality Pack Patch Bundle
The Quality Pack patch bundle consists of two bundles: the Base Quality Pack bundle
and the Applications Quality Pack bundle. The Base Quality Pack bundle includes all
stable, defect-fix patches for the Core OS, graphics, and key networking drivers. The
Applications Quality Pack bundle includes all stable, defect-fix patches for HP-UX
Operating Environment (OE) applications.
Summary of Change
In March 2004, the first ever Quality Pack (QPK) patch bundle for HP-UX 11i v2
(B.11.23) was delivered. In September 2004, HP-UX 11i v2 was updated to support both
PA-RISC and Itanium-based systems, as opposed to the initial release of HP-UX 11i v2,
which only supported Itanium-based systems. HP-UX 11i v2 September 2004 was
delivered via updated Operating Environments (OEs) and the BUNDLE11i patch
bundle. All patches from the March 2004 Quality Pack were superseded by
dual-architecture patches (that is, patches for both Itanium-based and PA-RISC
platforms) which were placed in BUNDLE11i; thus, there was not a Quality Pack in the
September 2004 release of HP-UX 11i v2. The May 2005 release of HP-UX 11i v2 will
once again contain the Quality Pack, as will future releases of HP-UX 11i v2.
Impact
There are no impacts, other than that described previously.
