latest patch levels / software levels

Hi all,

what is the best way to determine the latest os patch level and software level?

We don't have software support but we do have hardware.

Re: latest patch levels / software levels

Hi Lawrenzo:

There is no one patch level. The closest one gets is probably based on the standard patch bundles. The latest for 11i is the June 2006 set. Do:

# swlist | grep -i -e gold -e hwe -e feature

For instance, the June 2006 11.11 Gold bundle is version B.11.11.0606. The format is "YYMM" so December 2005 would be "0512", etc.

For 11.23 you will have a "FEATURE" bundle in lieu of a "GOLD" for 11.11. Both versions of 11.11 have "HWE" bundles. See:

shalom

swlist -l product | more

Then you need to read up on what it means.

Major patch releases are every six months. different products are released quite often.
