Yes, as fpmurphy says, you should apply the latest available patchset.
You come from the Red Hat world so here's a heads up......
The patchsets contain many hundreds of patches and your system will know which patches have already been applied and any duplicate patches in the patchset will be "skipped". Be prepared to see that.
Hope that helps.

I'm trying to setup our jumpstart server to automatically apply the latest patch cluster during installs, but I'm running into an issue. Every time Jumpstart runs it has this error. Obviously it's processing the patch_order file, so I'm not sure what I'm missing.
