Solaris patches

Hi Friends...

can some one tel me any tool for analysing patch on solaris, then download n install it wit all dependency patches????

don't know if pca (patch check advanced) still works, but the only official tools would be "Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center 2.5" and you can use the update-connection from any solaris installation (have a look at "smpatch" from commandline or "updatemanager" from a graphical interface).
of course you can always download the complete solaris patch cluster from sunsolve.

Hi All

If suppose I am installing the normal patch or kernal patch and during that time hardware failure occur . Please let me know how can we backup out of patch which was not installed properly. As such I haven't gone through this situation but definately like to know what should be done in this situation

Few inputs from gurus are definately increase our knowledge on this issue.

Regards

there's a roll back option with the patchadd command.

but as a rule of thumb, before you install any patch, you must break the root mirror in case anything happen.
