A new application require it to be on update 6.

What is the best way to make it update 6.

thanks for you help in advance

just patching won't take you to update 6... you'll need to upgrade.

anybody is having procedure documentation for upgrade?

take a backup (ufsdump or something like that), insert the DVD (or boot over network, whatever you use) and follow the instructions. after the upgrade use the latest patchcluster.
