Analysys patch information

I´m installig a QPK1100, can you explain me this message?

ERROR: The fileset "PHKL_27178.CORE2-KRN,r=1.0" is a "sparse" or
"patch" fileset. Another fileset or filesets which supersedes

excluded.

Why this patch said this fileset is already installed on the target, if i have not installed patch since 1 year ago?

Thank
The obstacles are those things that the people see when they left to see their goals.

Re: Analysys patch information

It may be caused by already installed fileset.
You can resolve this problem by remove already installed, or install with the multiple version option.

# swinstall -x allow_multiple_versions=true -s /cdrom/QPK1100

Re: Analysys patch information

The patch is excluded because it is superseded by another patch BEING INSTALLED not ALREADY INSTALLED.
It means that in the bundle there is a patch which contains a part which superseds the patch excluded: it should resolve in wanrning and non problem during the installation, only some patch excluded.

I would avoid absolutly the suggest to enable multiversion during patch installation: really very dangerous !!!!

Another hint, maybe it could be better to run a patch assessment (go to www.hp.com then look for patch database and patch assessment) instead of installing a full quality patch bundle. With assessment u download and installed a bundle of patch build exactly for ur system

Hope this helps.
