PHCO_15931: Add verification for new patches on the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List dated July 20, 1998. PHCO_15521: It is difficult to determine if the patches from the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List are installed. Defect Description: PHCO_16047: The y2koscheck utility revision 1.20 incorrectly reported that it was comparing the system against the Year 2000 patch list dated June 1, 1998 instead of July 20, 1998. The July 20, 1998 list was being used, but the incorrect date was reported. PHCO_15931: Patch PHNE_15544 was added to the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List dated July 20, 1998. PHCO_15521: This patch provides a utility named 'y2koscheck' that will analyze the SD-UX Installed Product Database and the /var/adm/sw/patch directory to determine if the patches from the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List, or their applicable replacements, are installed. The utility is currently performing the comparison based on the Master Patch List dated June 1, 1998. If the Master Patch List changes, then this utility will be updated.

Back up your system before installing a patch. 2. Login as root. 3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory. 4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch: cd /tmp sh PHCO_16047 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHCO_16047.depot 5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the server to install the patch on the server and the clients: swcluster -i -b This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and force all clients to be shut down. WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the patch installation. Installing the patch while the clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to serious problems. The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which you must specify: alternate root path - default is /export/shared_root/OS_700 source depot path - /tmp/PHCO_16047.depot To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install" from the Menubar. 5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster: - run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install the patch on the cluster server. - run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install the patch on the cluster clients. By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/patch/PHCO_16047. If you do not wish to retain a copy of the original software, you can create an empty file named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE. Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful when using this feature. It is recommended that you move the PHCO_16047.text file to /var/adm/sw/patch for future reference. To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the tape drive, use the command: dd if=/tmp/PHCO_16047.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: This utility is intended for standalone systems only. The y2koscheck script included in this patch has not been written to work in an heterogenous NFS diskless cluster environment.
