Swcopy Fiber Channel depot files

[Kenny_16]

I am trying to swcopy five Fiber Channel driver depot files into one since each needs a reboot. But it fails with the following error message:
===============================================
PHKL_28569.CORE2-KRN,fa=HP-UX_B.11.11_64

Patch PHKL_28569 is on the system and configured.

Thanking everyone in advance.

add "-x enforce_dependencies=false" to your swcopy syntax. That will tell swcopy to ignore and continue w/ the copy so you can copy one patch then the other into the same depot for a one time install.

swcopy -x enforce_dependencies=false -s /tmp/PHKL_28569.depot \* @ /tmp/your_depot

swcopy -x enforce_dependencies=false -s /tmp/PH_other_patch.depot \* @ /tmp/your_depot

hope this helps,
