Is there any way to show the patches that have been installed in what order, or by date?
For example, we have servers, we run the sun patch cluster on them every so often. but then we have some 1zee 2zee's which id like to identify.
do i ahve to go into each directory and look at time stamps?
this showrev command doesnt seem to be showing me what i want to see.
Hmmm, I thought there was a way but I couldn't find it. Here's a painful workaround though.
The showrev command does tell you what packages it updates. So you could use pkginfo -l and get the timestamp the packages a certain patch applied were installed that way. Writing a script that does that for you when you pass it a patch number might provide the functionality you're looking for.
Wish I could find a better solution, but I'm out of ideas.
