Hi,

The given patchs does not apply to a PA-RISC system architecture which is what you have. PHSS_36519,PHSS_37500,PHSS_37947 applies only to Itanium servers.

Hence, 'swlist' will not list the patch nor will you be able to install the patches on an PA-RISC server.

I think you would have to install the Jun '08 bundles to get those included. You can also install them separately.

Hello,

You can check patches with "show_patches -a" for active or "show_patches -s" fro super seeded.

Hi Navin:

Use the Patch Database to collect these patches into a depot that you can install as a unit.

http://itrc.hp.com/service/patch/search.do?BC=main|&pageOsid=hpux

Collect the patches and all dependencies they require using the patch "cart". Download the depot that is built to your server and do (assuming a 'gzip' depot was chosen):

# gzip -d /tmp/hpux*.tgz
# tar -xvf /tmp/hpux*.tar
# /tmp/create_depot_hp-ux_11
# swinstall -s /tmp/depot -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true

Regards!

If you are using a PA server you do not need to install these patches. If you are using an Integrity CPU then I'd install the June'08 gold patch bundle.
