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.

    Hello,
    Latest recommended patches are available through Oracle Support. If you have a valid account/support contract, you can login to http://support.oracle.com goto the "Patches" tab, and perform the following search:
    Product: Solaris Operating System

    Description CONTAINS recommended
    Remember to check the "Exclude superseded patches" to exclude the old ones.

    Hi guys,
    I've been trying for days now, but I cant seem to download the latest Java_ES_Required or Component Patches for Solaris 10 sparc. Whenever I try and download I get this error message from Sunsolve:

    You have encountered the following error(s) or warning(s):
    o An application error has occurred. The error is logged for further analysis.
    The URL is: http://sunsolve.sun.com/show.do?target=patches/patch-access
    Anyone know what the heck is going on, or how I go about getting Sun to fix it?

  • Last kernel patch for Solaris 10 x86 screwed up my kernel

    Hi,
    The last kernel patch for Solaris 10 x86 (sorry I can�t remember the patch id, but the revision is 30), available from Sun Update Manager screwed up my system.
    The system is still booting but in maintenance mode: smf can't start because of repository corrupted. Given instructions to restore the repository does not work because / filesystem is mounted read-only...
    As I am not a solaris expert, I will reinstall it from CD. I hope I won't loose the filesystem.
    I was used to blindly trust Sun solaris patches, that was a mistake.
    Laurent.

    i dont know why but still i do get default log in into the single mode
    after startup
    Requesting maintenance mode
    (See /lib/svc/share/README for aditional information. )
    Root password for system maintenance (control-d to bypass):i did removed the patch installed before so now
    SunOS jorgito 5.10 Generic_118844-26 i86pc i386 i86pcand finaly i do have milestone like this
    bash-3.00$ svcprop restarter | grep mile
    options/milestone astring svc:/milestone/multi-user:default
    dont know what to do else, also tried to synchronize boot-archive from solaris failsafe ...

  • Difference between Maintenance update and recommended patches.

    Hello
    What is the difference between "Maintenance Update" and "Recommended patches" ?
    Can we install the OS from the distribution, then install the recommended patches and have a decent system. Or we do need to install the maintenance update before the recommended patches ?

    Hi,
    What do you mean of Manual Update.
    Simulation means , it will not upload into the data to the datatarget,It just explore you about how the system goes through update rules,Transfer rules .
    real upload/Update manually means the data will reach the datatarget and sits there with out explore you about how the system goes through update rules,Transfer rules .

  • [Answered] List of patches for Solaris 10 SPARC 64 bit!

    Hi All,
    Installation document for 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Solaris Operating System (SPARC 64-Bit) does not mention anything about patches required on Solaris 10 (there is a list for Solaris 8 and 9).
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b15690/pre_install.htm#sthref110
    Can I safely assume that the installation of Solaris 10 contains all the required patches in this case?
    Thanks,
    Edited by: Satish Kandi on Nov 19, 2008 10:21 AM

    Hi Satish,
    I did not have access to ORACLE metalink so could not able check the doc which you reffered. But Checked the ORACLE installation doc, I suppose that is the required patches for 8 and 9 which you have to make sure of on Solaris 10.
    Other wise wait and see for other inputs too.
    Hemanth might reply back some thing.

  • Creating a patch for Solaris?

    Hi -
    My company has an application that we ship as a Solaris package - ie, it's installed with Solaris's pkgadd command. I'm trying to write a patch for that app and would like to package the patch in a format usable by Solaris' patchadd command. Anyone know if there is documentation available on how to do this?
    Thanks,
    mike

    Hi Mike,
    The section on "Patching Packages" in Chapter 6 of the "Application Package Developer's Guide" would be helpful.
    Below is the link to the section for the Solaris 10 doc:
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-0406/6mg76sth4?l=en&a=view
    Hope this is going to be useful for you.
    Have fun.

  • ABAP and Kernel Patches for Upgrade and Conversion in 4.6C

    Hi,
    We are in a process of upgrade and unicode conversion for the source release 4.6C (Kernel  46D_EXT Patch 2225).
    "Combined Upgrade&Unicode Conversion Guide"  for "SAP Basis 4.6C u2192 SAP NetWeaver 7.0 application Server ABAP Unicode Including Enhancement Package 1 Support Package 01 - 06" , In Software Requirements step,  it says
    "3. Import 4.6D Kernel patch 2326 from SAP Service Marketplace according to SAP Note 19466"
    We wanted to know whether "IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECCESSARY TO GO FOR THE KERNEL PATCH 2326".  We dont have "EBCIDIC code pages" in our MDMP system.
    We need to know  becauase we are also doing OS migration from AIX to Sun and this step will add to our production downtime.
    Please advice what are the other causes we should go for the kernel 2326.
    Regards

    Hello Mr. Nils Buerckel,
    Thanks for the reply.
    We wanted to be very sure whether we should used Kernel 46D Kernel patch 2326 (As it is specifically mentioned in the SAP CU&UC guide and in SAP Note 867193, It is mentioned that  "This patch contains enhancements that are required to execute the "INDX Analysis" scan)
    OR
    Can we go for the latest kernel patch avaialable at market place? And Will the latest kernel patch also contains the "enhancements that are required to execute the "INDX Analysis" ?
    Please reply
    Thanks

  • Help-urgent - how to update service pack and apply patches for ADS

    Dear all,
       I've just download the sp 11 and the patch ,how should i update my ADS? I've try to search the forum but to no avail. Pls advise,thanks.
    Regards,
    Joan

    Hi Joan,
    To deploy an SCA or SDA, proceed as follows:
          1. Make sure you have downloaded the SCA or SDA from SAP Service Marketplace.
          2. Start the SDM GUI. To do this, execute the following file:
                a) Windows: RemoteGui.bat in folder \usr\sap\<SID>\<instance>\SDM\program
                b) Unix: RemoteGui.sh in folder /usr/sap/<SID>/<instance>/SDM/program
          3. The SDM GUI screen appears.
          Note: With SAP Web Application Server 6.30 the SDM server is started whenever you start the SAP system. To check whether the SDM server is running, use the tools SAP Management Console (Windows) or jcmon (UNIX).
          4. Choose "SDM Gui -> Login" or the icon "Connect to SDM Server". The dialog box "Enter Login Information for SDM Server" appears.
          5. Enter the following information:
                a) Password
                The initial password is "sdm" (without quotes).
                b) User description (optional)
                c) Hostname
                d) Port
                With instance number 00, the default port number is 50018. If your instance number is different from 00, the port number changes to
                Port = 50018 + 100 x <instance number>.
                You have to calculate the new port number and enter it manually.
          6. Choose "Login". The SDM GUI appears.
          7. Choose tab "Deployment".
          8. Choose "Add SCA/SDA to Deployment List (Local File Browser)". A file selection screen appears.
          9. Select the SCA or SDA file you would like to deploy and choose "Next" to read the information on the following screens.
          10. Choose "Next" until the "Start" button appears.
          11. Choose "Start". After the SCA or SDA has been completely deployed, a success message appears.
          12. Choose "Confirm" to return to the SDM GUI.
          13. When you have finished work, log out from the SDM server. Choose "Deployment -> Logout" or the icon "Disconnect from SDM server" for this.
    If this answers your question, please mark the question accordingly and do award points if helpful.
