Hi Richard

If your concern is to free up space in the /var filesystem then you can
concentrate on other   directories like /var/adm/ which has all the junk
of solaris.But if you are concerned about backing out a patch.Then use
the backoutpatch script which is there in the Patch CD or it will be
there in the patch directory itself.


Thanks

Subject: [SunHELP] Repost:How to clean up /var/sadm?


Hi,
I got loads of "Send a summary on this" but no solutions.
So here it is again.

After applying many patch clusters /var/sadm/pkg is getting very large.
How can I clean out the old patch stuff and leave the last pkg patch
files
so=20
the current patch could be backed out.
Someone must have a nice little script to do this :-)
