SwCopy / Swinstall

[Maarten van Maanen]

I hape just installed UX 11.00 on a D370. Now I have downloaded the Sept.2000 patch-bundle and copied it to /var/tmp. However, I seem to be unable to install it using swinstall because the directory is not seen as a depot.
How do I rectify this ?

copy files to directory,
unshar them
Create a patch depot : eg ...

# mkdir /tmp/patch_depot
# swcopy -v -s /tmp/patches/PHCO_5400.depot

Register the depot (optional)
# swreg -l depot /tmp/patch_depot

Now call swinstall and specify the dir (give the full path for the depot).

how have you tried it ?

swinstall -s /var/tmp/XSWGR1100.depot -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true

should work
