installation of many patches / bundle

UNIX HP-UX
1

Hi, I need to install these 7 patches on my server:

and the below are the 5 dependency to install these patches

  1. PHNE_31097;
    1(a). PHCO_33205 (dependency)
    b(a). PHCO_30398 (dependency)

  2. PHSS_32508;

  3. PHSS_32509;

  4. PHSS_32510;

  5. PHSS_30970;

  6. PHSS_32731;
    6(a). PHNE_28810 (dependency)
    6(a). PHSS_32732 (dependency)

  7. PHCO_31312;
    7(a). PHCO_33142 (dependency)

I have download all these in one zip file from ITRC.
I have extracted it and copied to my unix server OS: HP-ux b.11.11

I have create a "patches" directory under /tmp and copied all the files in /tmp/patches.

#

So now which command should i use to install these patches? should i use the below command or something else?

#swinstall -s /tmp/patches/depot {where depot is a directory}

will it install all the patches in only one reboot or do i need to restart the server after every patch installation?

please let me know the complete procedure.

Thanks

Type swinstall

Step 1
Source Depot Type : Local Directory
Source Hostname : your machine
Source Depot Path : /tmp/patches/depot

Step 2
Mark all bundles you want to install.

Step 3
Install

Since you have created a depot, the system may reboot only once, depend what you install. Remember that if you have any kernel patches, the system will for sure reboot. If you do have some kernel patches, make a copy of your kernel first.

# cd /stand
# cp vmunix vmunix.old

For a non-interactive installation, you should be able to do something like:
swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true -s some.depot
