Just by-the-by.....regarding instfix and it's usefulness.
Post upgrade/installation I usually do a:
Code:
instfix -ic | grep ML | grep 5300-12 | grep ":-:"
Looking for the ":-:" shows you the filesets that are "known" to the system, but not at the known (higher) ML/TL.
This is useful when you have installed an oslevel, but
Code:
oslevel -s
is not showing you what you believe to be an accurate post-installation oslevel.
This is normally down to a handful of filesets not in your install or lpp_source.
An example, host installed with TL12 Concluding Service Pack (5) for 5.3, updated from TL8, but reporting TL11!

Hi Folks,
I am getting the following error when trying to see installed patches on my Solaris 9 system :wall:
# patchadd -p
No patches installed

Any help will be much appreciated

Does anyone know of a command that would show the list of patches installed and the date it was installed? My understanding is that "showrev -p" would show patches but not the date they were installed. I'm looking for this on a Solaris 10 server. Thanks. (2 Replies)

debian/
debian/patches/
Patches are extracted to one of these directories. "debian/patches/" is preferred, if it exists. If DEB_PATCHES is present in the
environment, it will override this behavior (see "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES" section below).
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
DEB_PATCHES
When defined and points to an existing directory, patches are extracted in that directory and not under "debian/" nor
"debian/patches/".
