I don't think that the patches will require any reboots. They are just for the pax utility. It is usually only the kernel patches (normally specified by PHK...) that would need a reboot.

And yes, you add patches using swinstall. It will open up a menu kind of interface that will be quite easy to use.

Thanks
I have download the patch but there are some dependencies needed a reboot so I didn't download them as I can't reboot the system.
The thing is I know that before installing a patch I have to do a system backup but they never did a system backup on the Production and when I tried to do it last time I have a warning saying that I have to install the patch...
So I will install it and then doing the backup os (hoping nothing happens...)

Cheers
Al
