Where can I get HP-UX recalled patches?

Hi all,

Does someone of you know a official HP site wich contains either current
patches and recalled patches as well? I'm looking for patch PHKL_20057 now.

I want to install this patch and then uninstall/remove it because the were some
leftovers from a previous uninstall action that wouldn't back off since I
cleaned up the sw directory.

Thanks,

Frits.

Fritz,
I attached a response on your other posting on this issue. HP cannot release
recalled patches. I don't think this will resolve your issue anyway (see other
posting). You may want to see if you have /var/adm/sw/patch on a back up tape.
That happen sometimes if a sys admin see space problems and removes
the info under that dir then sets up patch nosave. If
the patch was originally installed using nosave this won't be an option for
you.

Is there a HP site where we could obtain a
listing of patches that have been recalled?

In the ITRC Maintenance and Support section under Custom Patch Bundles, you can download a Collect script that you would run against your system. This could be sent to the ITRC for ananlysis. In the analysis you would receive info regarding patches on your system that have been recalled.
