warnings when trying to create depot

[PamelaJThrasher]

I have done a patch analysis on my HP-UX 11.23 server and downloaded the QPK and patches. When I tried to create the depot using create_depot_hp-ux_11, I received warnings.

When I looked at the output from "swjob -a log dh1dc003-0216 @ dh1dc003:/var/tmp/patches/depot", I saw the following:

The prerequisite "PHKL_31500.CORE2-KRN,fa=HP-UX_B.11.23_PA" for fileset "PHKL_35114.CORE2-KRN,r=1.0" cannot be successfully resolved.

After researching this, I found that PHKL_31500 is included in the QPK bundle that I will be installing as well.

Can I disregard the warnings from trying to create the depot and just swistinall everything at once? Or is there something else I should do?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for you response.

I had read that thread previously and it was not clear to me what the best course of action was.

I have edited the create_depot_hp-ux_11 script and put -x enforce_dependencies=FALSE\
in as one of the arguements in the swcopy portion. I am hoping that will allow the depot to create without warnings.

Hi Pamela

When you create depot in ITRC Patch site, you should add PHKL_31500 patch to your depot. Then download depot with it.

When you start to installation it will ignored because you already installed it before

Something wrong here. That should already be in that script.

Pamela,

when you run create_depot_hp-ux_11, it required the PHKL_31500 into the bundle, because PHKL_31500 Sept04 base patch (Critical Patch), please do not edit or modify the script "create_depot_hp-ux_11" to avoid any complication later on.

Let this patch in the QPK bundle, so that your patch bundle will be generated correctly, later when you install the patch, during the swinstall patch analysis, if the PHKL_31500 exist in your server, it will not reinstall this patch.

Keep things simple
