patch level

[Randy_9]

If I do a patch bundle listing on my system, I get the following:

XSWGR1100 B.11.00.51.2 HP-UX General Release Patches, December 2000
XSWHWCR1100 B.11.00.51.2 HP-UX Hardware Enablement and Critical Patches, December 2000
QPK1100 B.11.00.49.01 Quality Pack for HP-UX 11.00 (June 2000)

Yet I have applied the patch bundle updates for the past couple of years. I have an application to install that requires a patch bundle level of June 2001 (and I've applied bundles dated beyond that). What am I to do :(

Thanks,

Randy

If you install the Quality pack bundles and such and no new patches were installed, the database does not get updated.

This happens to me frequently on older systems that I keep current by getting the patches before they get three stars and are included in the Quality Packs.

I do however show the following with a "swlist" variation:
# swlist -l bundle -a date | grep -i xsw
XSWGR1100 Mon Aug 6 16:09:25 PDT 2001
XSWHWCR1100 Mon Aug 6 15:33:25 PDT 2001

Can I consider this patched to August 2001?

The date that shows with this output is the date of actual installtion, not the date of the patch bundle release.

Randy,

What syntax did you use for your original swlist? The bundles were renamed, so this might show you something:

swlist -l bundle |grep -i qpk
QPK1100 B.11.00.56.5 Quality Pack for HP-UX 11.00, March 2002
