Full Discussion: Patching failed on Sun T2000
Operating Systems Solaris Patching failed on Sun T2000 Post 302696077 by hicksd8 on Tuesday 4th of September 2012 08:45:10 AM

It is difficult to say whether a M3000 would also fail to install a standard patchset.

I have patched a number of different hardware models with the latest patchsets without any problems except for the T2000. I also know of others, like yourself, who have hit the same problem.

Although I have not read every last detail about the latest patchset, Oracle do not seem to issue any specific warning about the T2000 falling over. However, without the latest OBP, it seems that is does.

Sadly, I have no experience with the M3000 model.

I would guess (and it is a guess) that you would not have any similar issue with a M3000, but absolutely no guarantees given. It depends on how much inconvenience it will cause you to recover a similar failure to patch as to whether you bring the OBP, etc up to date first.

Hope that helps.
