Thanks & Regards

Re: Patches
To find out the patches existing:
# /usr/sbin/swlist -l patch
To install a patch after download.
# sh PHXX-YYYYY
# swinstall -s ./PHXX-YYYYY.depot
Hope this helps. Regards.

Re: Patches
If you want a more summarized and interpretable listing of patches, then:
# /usr/sbin/swlist -l product|grep " PH"
Hope this helps. Regards.

2.ftp into system to be installed(say /tmp)

Re: Patches
It is very clear how to view the existing installed patches. But sorry I couldn't get on installing new patches.
- To install a patch after download.
# sh PHXX-YYYYY
# swinstall -s ./PHXX-YYYYY.depot
What is PHXX-YYYYY, a patch file in shell script format?
After running, does it become *.depot?
Please ....
Thanks & Regards
Syed

SolutionTo install a patch after download.
XX can be:
- CO: Command patch
- SS: Subsystem patch
- KL: Kernel patch
- NE: Network patch
YYYYY is a numeric identifying the patch.
For example:
# sh PHCO-12345
# swinstall -s ./PHCO-12345.depot
The sh command will unshar the patch into two files:
- PHCO-12345.depot
- PHCO-12345.text
PHCO-12345.text contains information regarding the patch installation, including any pre-requisite patches etc.
If you have a support contract, you can download HP-UX patches by accessing this link:
http://us-support2.external.hp.com
Hope this helps. Regards.

Re: Patches
You can remove superseeded patches with 'cleanup'. Again you'll need the patch mentioned above.
