/var/tmp/ign_configure/make_sys_image_flag460

The files in /var/tmp are expected to change.
I assume the same for /var/opt/dce.

Not sure why PHCO_34668 is bad.
What does "swverify PHCO_34668" show?

Hi,

#swlist -l fileset|grep -i PHCO_34668
# PHCO_34668 1.0 tztab(4) cumulative patch
PHCO_34668.UX-CORE 1.0 OS-Core.UX-CORE

This patch is a tztab cumulative patch.
The tztab file describes the differences between Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and local time. Several local areas can be represented simultaneously with historical detail.
#man 4 tztab

Please check the current status of this fileset on your system:
#swlist -l fileset -a state|grep -i PHCO_34668
# PHCO_34668
PHCO_34668.UX-CORE configured

The current status must be "configured", any other state require solution.

An option is evaluate a patch upgrade at last version PHCO_39172.
http://www11.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/patchDetail.do?patchid=PHCO_39172&sel={hpux:11.11,}&BC=main|search|
As you see this one do not requires system reboot and not have patch dependencies.

Rgds.

>now what I need to do as it is cumulative patch so I hope reboot is not require. shall I install it again?

I would just just remove the corrupted patch and install the latest that Jose mentioned, PHCO_39172.

swremove PHCO_34668
swinstall -s $PWD/PHCO_39172.depot \*

Reboot is not required.

HI,
Tnx for reply. Just curious to know why /* is used?

Hi,

The \* software specification selects all products. In your case this specification *forces* all filesets or subfilesets included in depot file will be installed. Of course in non-interective mode, as you've seen the swinstall utility did not display any pseudo-graph screen.
This specification must be used with caution
#man swinstall

Rgds.

Shalom,

\* just means install everything if there are multiple filesets.

I suppose I could have been more specific on which SD products to install:
swinstall -s $PWD/PHCO_39172.depot PHCO_39172
