HP-UX Workload Manager A.03.04.xx Release Notes

# /usr/sbin/swlist [-l patch] patch
where patch is the patch’s tag. For example, to check that patch PHKL_32061 is installed,
use the following command line:
# /usr/sbin/swlist -l patch PHKL_32061
Similarly, if you downloaded patch bundles in Step 1, check the bundles for the patches:
# /usr/sbin/swlist -d patch @ /tmp/bundle_name
If a given patch is not listed, check HP’s IT Resource Center (http://itrc.hp.com) for a
superseding patch, then use swlist to list the superseding patch.
c. Download any missing patches to /tmp.
If any of the required patches are missing (not installed or not in a bundle you
downloaded), download the patches from HP’s IT Resource Center:
Americas/Asia-Pacific http://itrc.hp.com/
Europe http://europe.itrc.hp.com/
NOTE: Do not install these patches at this point.
5. (Optional) Create a software depot to minimize system reboots
Creating a depot is beneficial when you are completing two or more of the following tasks:
• Installing patch bundles (GOLDQPK11i or HWEnable11i)
The patch bundles include kernel patches. Installation of a patch bundle requires a
system reboot.
• Installing PHKL_* patches
The PHKL_* patches are HP-UX kernel patches. Installation of these patches requires
a system reboot.
• Installing/upgrading WLM
The installation or upgrade of WLM requires a kernel rebuild and system reboot.
Completing two or more of the above tasks will cause multiple reboots unless you create a
software depot. With a depot including all the patches, the patch bundles, and WLM, you
can combine the installation steps into a single operation, thereby limiting the number of
installation reboots that must occur.
If you do not mind multiple reboots or your system will not be subject to multiple reboots
because its software is up-to-date, proceed to Step 6.
In order to install these items with a single swinstall(1M) command, all of the related filesets
must be collected into a single software depot distribution directory.
The following steps outline how to create a software depot. The steps use examples showing
how to include the following items in your depot:
• Quality Pack GOLDQPK11i (also known as a patch bundle)
• Patch PHKL_32619
• perl
• WLM
NOTE: To satisfy SD-UX, it may be necessary to copy dependency filesets into this common
depot.
a. Ensure that adequate disk space is available. The size of each patch can be found in its
README text.
