patch installaton problem(for oracle installation) on hp ux 11i v1.6

[Senthil Kumar .A_1]

hello admin's,
as a ongoing process of oracle installation on hpux 11i v1.6, we have been requested to install some patches.We were successful in installing 7 out of 11 patches but failed obviously with other four(simple mathematics..yeh..ha,ha...).Well the problem is two of the patches depends on AC++ and C-ANSI-C compiler which ofcourse is a priced product and is a direct solution.But,PHSS_27287 and PHSS_27291 depends on a product called Auxilliary-opt B.11.22 as seen from error log of swinstall during installation.Now, the MR.x(anonimous) is not sure of what is auxilliary-opt is all about, though i tried convincing him that it sould be priced product since i was able to see the product when i browsed the app cd after mounting but, failed to list out in swinstall utility, possibly for the want of a code word.but, my effort was of no con sideration except for a curt reply that the product does not exist.
now i genuinely request someone to throw light on the subject, as to what is auxilliary-opt is ? and is the product priced...

Need the swagent.log entries.

Could it be:

HPUXBaseAux B.11.22 HP-UX Base OS Auxiliary

Here is the Axuiliary-Opt product;

# Auxiliary-Opt B.11.11.04 Auxiliary Optimizer for HP Languages.
Auxiliary-Opt.LANG-AUX B.11.11.04 Advanced Optimization Tools
Auxiliary-Opt.LANG-HELP B.11.11.04 linker online help
Auxiliary-Opt.LANG-STARTUP B.11.11.04 Family of Startup crt0.o files

But, it IS part of the ANSI/C Compiler;

B3901BA B.11.02.04 HP C/ANSI C Developer's Bundle for HP-UX 11.00 (S800)

Which means to get it you must purchase ANSI/C. I cant see Auxiliary-Opt available on www.software.hp.com independant of the purchaseable ANSI/C product.

Still - if you are installing patches which require Auxiliary-Opt, and you dont have it, then the patches wont install - which means you dont NEED those patches, so nothing to worry about!
