Trouble installing Bundle plus patches

[chmc]

I have downloaded a quality pack plus the recommended patches to go with it. Transferred binary to my HP-UX 11i server.
Ran:
gunzip (ran 6/19)
tar -xvf (ran 6/19)
./create_depot_hp-ux_11 (ran 6/20)

I thought going into this I was getting one depot with the quality pack and the individual patches all together to avoid multiple reboots. I have multiple depots though.

Is there a next step for combining or should that be already done with the create_depot? I am reviewing the Patch User guide right now but I haven't found my answer yet. Thanks for helping. I am trying to figure out if I am on the right track with this.

there should have been a folder created called depot in the directory that you ran create_depot_hp-ux_11. You can run the following

# swinstall -s /path/to/the/dir/called/depot


This should then open the tui/gui with the bundle listed.

[chmc]

It did create the depot dir (see above)

I ran it and it returns this only:
Bundle(s):
#

BUNDLE B.11.11 Patch Bundle
#
If I cd into the depot dir I see a BUNDLE dir but it is empty.
# cd depot
# ll

what is "it"?

[Steven E. Protter]

Shalom,

Given no other input create depot creates a folder called depot which is a depot and install point.

SEP

[chmc]

court- it was the command you gave me

swlist -s

[chmc]

SEP-
So are you saying I should have give input to the create_depot_hp-ux_11?

My goal was to install the QP and the individual patches together.

[Court Campbell]

Are you specifying the full path name?

ie.

# swinstall -s /tmp/depot

[chmc]

yes I am.

# swlist -s /home/test/depot
# Initializing...
# Contacting target "srvr3"...
#
# Target: srvr3:/home/test/depot
#

#
# Bundle(s):
#

BUNDLE B.11.11 Patch Bundle

The original post was the "ls" from the /home/test/ dir if that help.

You have that in the SD directory depot "depot".

>I am trying to figure out if I am on the right track with this.

I just did this last night. All you need to do is install.

>I ran it and it returns this only: Bundle(s):
BUNDLE B.11.11 Patch Bundle

That's exactly as it should be. That's what the swpackage step does, hide the details.

>If I cd into the depot dir I see a BUNDLE dir but it is empty.

(Nothing to see here, go about your business.)
Typically SD bundles don't have any associated data. The metadata is in catalog/.

># swlist -s /home/test/depot

If you want more details on what is in the depot, you must use:
# swlist -l product -s /home/test/depot

And if you are feeling lonely, you can change "product" above to "fileset" or "file". :-)
