I am wanting to use pca to update my solaris 10 server.
I have figured out how to give it my SOA credentials, set it to auto update the pca tool and ignore a few patches I don't want to do. I have also ran:
pca -l missingrs
to list all available patches I need in the recommended and security categories.
My question is what about safe mode? Should I use that?
I am trying to figure out a way to stop logins while I run this in multiuser mode (question in another thread here) beyond that is there anything else I need to know?
Also as far as the ones that require a reboot (or for that matter a reconfigure reboot) how does it handle those? Just installs them and then tells me to reboot when it is done? Does it initiate the reboot for me at the end of the session?
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.
