superseding patch

[Ross Minkov]

When I get something like this:

WARNING: Patch PHKL_27096 is not installed on this server.
Please install PHKL_27096 or verify that it's superseding
patch is installed BEFORE installing Secure Path.

How do I verify that it's superseding patch is installed?

TIA,
Ross

Hi Ross,

Unless you know the name of the patch in question its a manual check I'm afraid. Go to the patch database :

http://www4.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/search.do?pageContextName=hpux:::

Enter the details here, i.e. 11i, search by patch id and put the patch name in. Click on the latest patch for full details of it and any superseded patches.

Cheers,

James.
