errors during patch installation

[srinivasa rao vaddadi]

i have extracted Oracle-reqpatches-hpux_800_11.11_10200745.tar and trying to install PHCO_27120 but it is giving I/O error .
so i have executed create_depot_hp-ux_11 to generate depots . now when i'm installing i got the below error mesg.

NOTE: The patch fileset "PHCO_27120.UX-CORE,r=1.0" is superseded by another patch fileset that is already installed on the target. Fileset "PHCO_27120.UX-CORE,r=1.0" will be excluded. Executing preDSA command.

so how can i install these patches

You need not to install PHCO_27120 since it is superseded by another patch and it is installed on your server. This is what the error says.

Arun ,
but when i say #swlist |grep PHCO_27120 it is not showing the patch info.

[Orhan Biyiklioglu]

It is not installed. Another patch is installed which contains this patch.

PHCO_27120 is superseded by PHCO_27957. It is installed your server.
Try,

# swlist -l patch |grep -i "PHCO_27957"

Also, reading http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/helptips.do?#28
will improve responses you get here.

Most likely you have PHCO_27957 installed which is newer than PHCO_27120 and supercedes it. This means that any fixes contained in PHCO_27120 have been carried on into PHCO_27957, along with some additional fixes. You do not need to install PHCO_27120.
