Naming Convention for HP Patches.

[Gamoji Raghavendra]

Hello,
I just wanted to know the meaning of the names HP uses for its pathches.
Are they random or do they have specific meaning.

All the types of patches I know are :
PHKL*
PHSS*
PHCO*
PHNE*

what do these names mean?

Thanks,
Raghu.

PHCO - command patches
PHNE - network patches
PHSS - subsystem patches

Hope this helps. Regards.

PHKL - Kernel Subsystem O/S patches
PHSS - O/S Subsystem patches
PHCO - O/S Command patches
PHNE - Networking patches.

Traditionally if you apply any PHKL patch it will always ask you for a reboot.

Thanks and Good luck.
