If you are having problem then use the same thread without creating new thread ;)

Is there any specific error message there when doing swpackage? Can you paste exact psf file you are using?

You are trying to install invidual patches with,

swinstall -s -x patch_match_target=true

Use patch_filter option with patch_match_target

Patch selection criteria is done based on, /var/adm/sw/defaults.patchfilters file. check swinstall with patch_filter keyword.
