If you are asking how do you remove patch filesets that have been saved after installing a newer version of the patch, use swmodify:
man swmodify:

Commit a patch (remove files saved for patch rollback):

swmodify -x patch_commit=true PATCH

where PATCH is the patch you wish to commit

You could also look into the cleanup command. Do a man on cleanup.

hi again ,

also (and maybe better) command "cleanup" can help you, but before read "man cleanup" or HP-UX documentation.

Hi Eldre,
Superseded patches are save in /var/adm/sw/save directory.

To free space, use "clenaup" utility.

Verify,

# cleanup -p -c 2

Clean,

# cleanup -c 2
