Installing a subset of patches from bundle?

Hi fundus,
I have QPK1100 bundle which has something like 445 patches. I want to install only around 100 patches from it. I want to know what is the easiest way to install these 100 patches from QPK1100 bundle.
I don't want to download each & every patch from HP site.It is very time consuming.

Thanks

Re: Installing a subset of patches from bundle?

swinstall -x autoreboot=true -s /full_path_to_depot PHKL_29123

That will install one patch and dependencies allowing for a reboot if needed.

Wildcards are possible.


Better though is this:

swinstall -i -s /full_path_to_depot

pick and install.
