SolutionIf a particular patch doesn't show in 'swlist' then it is probably superseded. Try using:
# swlist -x show_superseded_patches=true -l product
As for SWA recommending the same patches just installed, set the 'inventory_max_age=0' (it defaults to 24-hours). I use '-x inventory_max_age=0' in my '.swa.conf' file for this reason.
Regards!

Re: swa & Installed Product Database
My guess is that you are including the CRIT analyzer looking for critical patches. It turns out that will include a number of firmware patches. These patches were built to always try to install but to deselect themselves if the system is not the correct hardware.
Take a look at the detail section of the HTML report (~/.swa/report/swa_report.html). It will have links and information that will confirm that they are firmware related. If this is the case the details will also include an issue ID that can be placed into the file ~/.swa/ignore to remove them from future consideration. The ignore file has a template that tries to describe its operation.
Firmware management is still a hot topic, but it is clear that we are moving away from SD-style patches to deliver it.
