Getting recommended patches via proxy?

We have a service contract and a host registred at update connection.
Previously we could use this host as a proxy to get any patch
but now we only seem to be able to get security patches via the
proxy.
Is this a new limitation of Update Connection or is it a bug?
Dp we need to revert to downloading tha patches manually
for tehse systems?
(This is for hosts s running Solartis 10.)

When using a Sun UC proxy the only system you need to
register with a subscription key is the proxy itself.
All other clients using the proxy do not need to be
registered with a subscription key but will still be
entitled to all updates through the Sun UC proxy.As I wrote, this was they way it worked before here. Beginning in June, this
is no longer the case. The proxy (using itself as prox) is entitled to download.
We have to omit recommended patches for our wishlist when downloading.
Here is output from the sessions (with names changed to reflect setup):
client# smpatch download -i 118959-03
Error: One or more of the updates specified do not have entitlement permissions.
client # smpatch get

  • Smpatch and Recommended Patches for Solaris 10

    Hi,
    Is there any way to make smpatch only retrieve recommended patches for Solaris 10 ?
    I've seen several forum posts saying to use
    smpatch set patchpro.patchset=recommended
    but other posters indicate that this only works for Solaris 9 (additionally, it doesn't seem to work at all currently:
    Failure: Cannot connect to retrieve recommended.zip: Not Found )
    As far as I'm aware, Sun's patching policy is to apply the Recommended patches, as well as any that address specific issues you are having. This seems to contrast with the behaviour of smpatch which grabs all patches..

    Hi.
    Depending on your hardware, you can use the following in place of 'current' in patchpro.patchset to get recommended patches:
    sunu45 = Sun Ultra45/Ultra25 Recommended
    sftxk = Sun Fire T1000/T2000 Recommended
    sfv2x5 = Sun Fire V215/245 Recommended
    sfv445 = Sun Fire V445 Recommended
    Mod.

  • Java URLConnection via proxy

  • Solaris Patch Manager gets status:302 behind Proxy

    Hi Colleagues,
    I am trying to get Solaris Patch Manager on my Solaris 8 up and running.
    But if I say "smpatch analyze", the smpatch just reports a "Response code was 302" I think this means something like: "temporary moved".
    I think my problem is, that the proxy doesn't follow the moved object.
    Can anybody tell me where I can manualy download the detectors.jar and patchdb.zip?

    Any news on this posting? I'm trying to do the same thing, as I dont want to use a caching proxy to download patches, I just want to use
    a local source to perform analysis, downloads, and updates.
    Cheers.

  • Management console problem after installing recommended patch cluster

    Hello everyone.
    I just got a new SUN 440 server, it didn't come with the solaris os installed and so I installed solaris 9 12/03 to it. The installation went fine and I could start the management console with no problems at all. Then I went to sunsolve.sun.com to download the latest recommended patch clusters for solaris 9 (this was yesterday Sept.-06-2006), I downloaded the file, checked it with md5sum, unzipped it, went to single user mode and ran the install_patch script. After the patch cluster finished installing I rebooted the server for the patches to take effect, I logged in, tried to run console management 2.1 and it starts OK but I cannot use any services it offers because it says (in the console events):
    "Server Not Running: no solaris management console server was available on the specified server. Please ensure there is a Solaris Management Console server available on the specified host and that it is running"
    When I click on "See Exception" I get (for a particular service that is... in this case com.sun.admin.fsmgr.client.VFsMgr - for managing file systems):
    java.rmi.RemoteException: Server RMI is null:
    at sun.com.management.viperimpl.client.ViperClient.lookupServer(ViperClient.java:376)and so on...
    I already checked that the service is running on port 898 and it seems that there is no other app. using that same port. I also restarted the service using /etc/init.d.init stop/status/start but I get the same results.
    I don't know solaris very much and don't know what else to do, please help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Well, I guess what you see isn't what you get.
    Guess I'm used to the fact USENET just left things formatted the way they were :-O

  • Problem: installing Recommend Patch Cluster: patch 140900-10 fails

    I don't know if this is correct location for this thread (admin/moderator move as required).
    We have a number of Solaris x86 hosts (ie 4) and I'm trying to get the patched and up to date.
    I obtained the latest Recommended Patch Cluster (dated 28Sep2010).
    I installed it on host A yesterday, 2 hours 9 mins, no problems.
    I tried to install it on host B today, and that was just a critical failure.
    Host B failed to install 140900-01, because the non global zones rejected the patch because dependancy 138218-01 wasn't installed in the non global zones.
    Looking closer, it appears that 138218-01 is for global zone installation only; so it makes sense that the non global zones rejected it.
    However, both hosts were in single user mode when installing the cluster and both hosts have non global zones.
    140900-01 installed on host A with log:
    | This appears to be an attempt to install the same architecture and
    | version of a package which is already installed. This installation
    | will attempt to overwrite this package.
    |
    | Dryrun complete.

    It looks as if the patch strategy is completely different for the two hosts; both are solaris x86 (A is a V40z; B is a V20z).
    Trying to use "-G" with patchadd crabs the patch is for global zones only and stops (ie it's almost as if it thinks installation is being attempted in a non global zone).
    Without "-G" same behavior as patch cluster install attempt (no surprise there).
    I have inherited this machines; I am told each of these machines were upgraded to Solaris 10u6 in June 2009.
    Other than the 4-5 months it took oracle to get our update entitlement to us, we've had no problems.
    I'm at a loss here, I don't see anyone else having this type of issue.
    Can someone point the way...?
    What am I missing...?

    Well, I guess what you see isn't what you get.

  • Recommended patches on oracle 10.2.0.4 RAC database and CRS

    Hi,
    This week I am planning to upgrade my oracle 10.2.0.2 RAC database oracle 10.2.0.4.
    Also, I want to apply if any recommended patches we can apply on 10.2.0.4 database or on CRS 10.2.0.4
    I searched in metalink, but in vain i didn't get any exact patches recommended on 10.2.0.4.
    If you have any patch numbers that need to be applied on oracle 10.2.0.4 RAC database, please provide me.
    Thanks,

  • Solaris 10 SPARC Recommended Patch Cluster for  2008 quarter 3 version

    Dear All,
    Could any one please guide me, where I can download "Solaris 10 SPARC Recommended Patch Cluster" for 2008 quarter 3 version.
    I have checked in sunsolve.sun.com, I'm able to find only the latest release.
    please guide me.
    Thanks and regards,
    veera

    Ok,
    Here's a cute little formula to try using your systems parameters to gain some "head's-up" on an expected or estimated time to complete the patch run.
    You will need a few things to prepare.
    Number of "real" CPU's (not hyperthreads)
    Speed of each CPU as a whole number i.e 2.87Ghz = 2,867
    the total number of patches from the cluster i.e. Sept 15th = 381 (Solaris 10)
    Network factor if using NFS = 2.5
    local cluster file factor = 1.5
    Patch cluster on CDROM factor = 3.25
    Now, combine all of those elements in this equation:
    { ( #1 * #2 ) / #3 * factor(#4 or #5 or #6) }
    This will yield a number in minutes of patch run time. Then all you will need to add is the standard boot up time to get the total of all patching and reboot.
    Of course you could write a script to extract all of this information and feed it to "bc -l" to get a quick figure.
    Example, on one of my Solaris 10 boxes with the information filled in to the equation:
    #> echo "((4*2660)/381)*1.5"|bc -l
    #> 41.88976377952755905511
    It actually took 44.2 minutes to complete the patching of this box plus another 12 minutes to reboot. But all in all a pretty fair estimate I think.

    Yah that seems to work (just tired it by uninstalling my java client and it re-installs it) but I still get the FRM-92095 error after the initial Security Warning error.
    Now if I go back and review 393931.1 I do recall it saying this:
    The JRE 7 Plug-in is certified for Oracle E-Business Suite R12.0.x and 12.1.x with the following minimum patch requirements:
    - Oracle forms 10.1.2.3 or higher with Patch 14614795 or later (See Document 437878.1 titled, 'Upgrading OracleAS 10g Forms and Reports in Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12' for the latest available forms patches)
    I did try and apply 14614795 but I got some opatch error "The patch directory 14614795 doesn't match the patch id." and I think the next day I forgot about that issue.
    Now I see if I review Doc ID 437878.1 I see there is a consolidated in bundle patch 14825718 so maybe I'll try that and hope I haven't done this all backwards...

  • Where can I get the patch for Oracle JMS to work with RDBMS 9.2.0.1

    Hi,
    In the following extract from Oracle documentation the patch is mentioned that needs to be applied.
    "You must apply a server-side patch for Oracle JMS, which ships with Oracle9iAS Release 2 (9.0.3) and the OTN release of OC4J, to work with an RDBMS 9.2.0.1 database. This patch is documented as bug 2513629; see the Metalink Web site or contact Oracle support for more information. However, it is strongly recommended that users move to RDBMS 9.2.0.2 when it is available. Users do not need to apply any server-side database patches when running with RDBMS 9.2.0.2."
    Where I can get this patch?
    Is it RDBMS patch or OC4J patch?
    I don't have access to a Metalink.
    Thanks a lot,
    Andrei

    Check out the configuration on the mapping. There you can create a data file. Do that and fill out the other parameters for the bad and discard file in that node.

  • Deploy all the security patches via sccm

    I have adobe reader 10.1.4 in my enviorment.

    Also, after installing the patch, how can i verify theat the latest security patches  has been deployed?

    Hi Arnav,
    You need to start with the Admin Guide which provides all your answers. The short answer is quarterly updates are cumulative and they install previous security out of cycle patches. However, read the admin guide to get the full story. There's also a SCUP  catalog available.

  • Recommended Patches

    Hello,
    I have got a RAC with 11gR1 on linux 64bit with ASM. I applied a patchset 11.1.0.7 for CRS, ASM, and Database. I read about other small recommended and security patches via Metalink and Oracle Recommened Patches (Doc ID: 756671.1).
    So I decided to apply following patches: 7829321, 5897089, 7272646 using OPatch utility to only Database Home (DB_1). I mean to apply other patches according to Oracle Recommended Patched doc, so my question is, should I apply patches to ASM instance, too ?
    Thank you for answer,
    Best Regards,
    Jimmy

    Hello,
    I have got additional information about recommended patches for Oracle Database:
    1. 8287931 - is for CRS_HOME and RDBMS_HOME.
    2. 8461420 - is for CRS_HOME and ASM_HOME.
    3. 8658581 - only for RDBMS_HOME, patch does not include any fixes for ASM_HOME.
    4. After patching ours environment we should apply a CPU patch 8534338 for RDBMS_HOME and ASM_HOME.
    I hope, this information will be helpful for someone.
