custom patch manager and recompiles/relinking

[Joe Profaizer]

I just did a custom patch management install (122 patches) to 11.00. Our development staff indicates that microfocus cobol programs are not working now. Is it normal to recompile after such a massive patch installation. We already re-linked oracle and it's fine.

Thanks,

I would think "size doesn't matter". Have you run swverify afterwards?

[Joe Profaizer]

No, I have not. What, if any, qualifiers should I run with swverify?

Hi Joe

I dont think there should be any problems with Patches and Micro Focus Cobol , however you can go to /opt/cobol/bin and do a cobrun to know whether the runtime version is working or not , it may turn out to be a simple path issue with users.

# swverify \*
==> It's going to take some time to complete, look at /var/adm/sw/swverify.log after it is completed.
==> Post any errors you see.

You can also check to see if all of the filesets, patches are configured. Run
swlist -l fileset -a state > /tmp/outputfile
Everything should show up configured, if anything shows up installed then you will neet to swconfig it
swconfig PH##_####. This configures the patch and does not have an affect on the running system, i.e. it doesn't cause a reboot at all.
