patche installation

[Binu_5]

Hi All

I have downloaded following patches from Hp website
BUNDLE11i_B.11.11.0306.1.depot GOLDQPK11i_Base.11.11.0412.5.depot
GOLDQPK11i_B.11.11.0412.5.depot HWEnable11i_B.11.11.0412.5.depot
and copied into a directory

Can anybody tell me the exact command line to install these patches

Thanks
BInu

you could try

swinstall -s /dir/depot_name

for each depot you downloaded.

I would suggest that you first use swcopy to gather all these into one depot so that you can install with only one re-boot:

mkdir /my_patch_depot
for i in *.depot
do
swcopy -s ${PWD}/$i \* @ /my_patch_depot
done

Then run swinstall specifying /my_patch_depot as the source and select all the depots within.

You can either use the full path name to the depot file, or cd to the directory containing the depot and

swinstall -s `pwd`/foo.depot \*

Where foo.depot is the name of your depot file.

Hi

I have created a script like this

mkdir /my_patch_depot
for i in *.depot
do
swcopy -s ${PWD}/$i \* @ /my_patch_depot
done

then ran swinstall -s /my_patch_depot

It works fine

Thanks to alll
