1. The below is part of the swinstall.log file.

* Session started for user "root@umawihp6".

* Beginning Selection
* Target connection succeeded for "umawihp6:/".
* "umawihp6:/home/oracle/patches/phss_22217/PHSS_22217.depot":
This source is a tape device.
* "umawihp6:/home/oracle/patches/phss_22217/PHSS_22217.depot":
Cannot open the logfile on this target or source. Possibly
the media is read-only or there is a permission problem.
Check the daemon logfile and "/var/tmp/swagent.log" on this
host for more information.
NOTE: Cannot continue the "swinstall" task.

2. And the below is part of the swagent.log file.

* Beginning Analysis Phase.
* Source:
:/tmp/PHSS_22217.depot
* Target: umawihp6:/
* Target logfile: umawihp6:/var/adm/sw/swagent.log

* Reading source for file information.
NOTE: The fileset "PHSS_22217.LANG-AUX,r=1.0" is a "sparse" or
"patch" fileset which may only be installed upon a previously
installed base fileset. The specification for the required
base fileset is "Auxiliary-Opt.LANG-AUX,fr=B.11.00,v=HP".
Since there is no fileset on the target or selected from the
source which matches this specification, fileset
"PHSS_22217.LANG-AUX,r=1.0" will be excluded.
* Executing preDSA command.

This looks like a 11.00 +O4/PBO compiler cumulative patch. If you do not already have the compiler installed you will not be able to install the patches.

how to know whether I have installed such a compiler, or how can I install it ?

Hi:

1. According to the patch text, this patch applies to these products: C-ANSI-C B.11.00, aCC compiler and the FORTRAN 77 compiler.

2. When doing patch installations, you should always choose the "match-target" option. In this way only patches that apply to your system are selected.

3. To see if you have any of these products installed, do the following (note the case-insensitve '-i' option of the 'grep'):

# swlist -l product | grep -i -e ANSI-C -e Fortran -e CC

4. I believe that everyone of these is a separately licensed product.

...JRF...

You can use
# swlist -l | grep
to find out if the patch is already installed.

Here is the link to get patch details and installation notes.

If you can't install this patch, it's because you don't have the product on which it applies. So you don't need this patch !?
Am i wrong ?
