When you download a patch you get a file PHSS_32508. Then you use:
# sh PHSS_32508
You then get two files, *.text and *.depot.
You can then install the *.depot file:
# swinstall -s $PWD/PHSS_32508.depot \*

Note: You will have to have A.03.60 already to install A.03.63, PHSS_32508.

Hello Omar

Basically, there're some patches that you need to download as text because its size, etc, but that's not a problem.

You need to, open the patch from the ITRC in your browser, wait until it finishes, and then go to "File" > "save as" ... and select the option "text file" in the save options of your browser.

I don't recommend you save the file as .text, because in the server the system will create another file with the same name, save it as .txt if you want or without any extention.

Move the text file to the server and then run the following commands.

1. Move text file to the server using ftp binary transfer.

2. To avoid errors with the transference run the following command.

#dos2ux PHSS_32508.txt > PHSS_32508_NEW.txt

Then execute the new file (additionally you could try to execute the original file, this step is only is you receive errors during the execution of the original file)

# sh PHSS_32508_NEW.txt

Then the system will create the .text and .depot files.

At this point you are ready to run the swinstall and get the software installed.

Hope that helps,

Best regards

Marco

When getting patches you should always remember that any given patch might have dependencies, a "better" replacement, or special installation instructions. In the case of PHSS_32508 several newer patches are available.

You can use SWA to check for all of these. The command:

swa report -a CHAIN=PHSS_32508

would provide the HP-recommended replacement or if only that patch will do use:

swa report -a PATCH=PHSS_32508

After either of these commands use:

swa get -t /depot

to download all of the patches into an install-ready depot. Once built you can review any special installation instructions:

more /depot/readBeforeInstall.txt

To install, use the command:

swinstall -x patch_match_target=true
-s /depot

You can find SWA at https://www.hp.com/go/swa

hi,

you can download it from here and sh it as Dennis says.

http://www12.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/patchDetail.do?patchid=PHSS_32508&sel={hpux:11.11,}&BC=main|search|

however this is an old patch and has been superceeded by 36087 which is here

http://www12.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/patchDetail.do?patchid=PHSS_36087&sel={hpux:11.11,}&BC=main|search|

if your downloading it on a windows bos first, dont save it as a txt file, select all file types instead then you can sh it on the unix box to release the text file and depot file

>Bob: When getting patches you should always remember that any given patch might have dependencies,

Typically the patch database would also put those in your shopping cart.
But as you said, swa is better.

You don't need to reboot to install aC++ compiler or runtime patches.
