Re: swverify issues. How serious?
Most swverify errors seem okay (I wish I could make them go away). You'll even get patches that conflict on permissions. I suppose if you're a wiz with SD-UX, you could figure out how to poke the control files to prevent the errors.
I'll look into
-checksum problems (someone may have tampered with a binary)
-size problems
-date problems
Ignore permission problems, use another tool to track permissions.
If I get an error in an area of concern, I disposition the error - sometimes it's a patch problem. If you can't disposition the error - worry about having been compromised (security).

Re: swverify issues. How serious?
The Ignite error is a mystery.
The check_patches thing, we had a problem with that and had to punch in a patch.
q4, there was a crash pach, so we put that in too.
I guess I'm going to have to live with this, but however pulled my support case is currently stumped.
One thing I won't tolerate is check_patches errors. Any patch that shows up bad on that is history. I think thats how I learned about the swverify command as a matter of fact.

Re: swverify issues. How serious?
Obtaining information on installed patches
Checking installed version of /usr/sbin/swconfig
Checking for invalid patches
Checking object module checksums for active patch fileset 457 of 457
Checking patch filesets for active patch 225 of 225
Checking state for patch fileset 738 of 738
Checking patch_state for patch fileset 738 of 738
Running swverify on all patch filesets, this may take several minutes
RESULT: No problems found, review /tmp/check_patches.report for details.
