Solaris 10 10/09 (Update 8) Patch Bundle
The Solaris 10 10/09 (Update 8) Patch Bundle is now available for download by customers with a Solaris support contract.Each Solaris Update Patch Bundle contains the equivalent set of patches which are pre-applied into the corresponding Solaris Update release image.It is provided to enable customers who cannot upgrade for whatever reason to be able to patch systems up to the same patch level as the Update release.Each Solaris Update is intensely tested as a unit by myriad QA teams across Sun. Therefore, Solaris Updates and their corresponding Solaris Update Patch Bundles provide good quality "baselines" on which customers can standardize their deployments.The Solaris Update Patch Bundle brings all existing packages up to the same software level as the Update release. Any features which are entirely contained in pre-existing packages, such as Zones and ZFS functionality, are entirely available in patches and hence applying the Solaris Update Patch Bundle brings them up to the same functional level as the Update release.

patchmedia

patchmedia(1M)						  System Administration Commands					    patchmedia(1M)

NAME

       patchmedia - modify Solaris media with patches and packages

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/patchmedia  -d media-root [-v] [-o iso] [-l label]
	    pkg_or_patch [pkg_or_patch ...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  patchmedia utility takes a list of patches and packages as input and updates the install miniroot in media-root (the root directory of
       an on-disk image of a Solaris installation media) to include the specified patches and packages. These patches and packages are also placed
       in a subdirectory called DU under the Solaris install image. For example:

	 media-root/Solaris_10/DU

       When  booting a system from the updated media, the patches and packages will be part of the booted Solaris image. They will also be applied
       to the target system being installed at the end of the installation process.

       If -o is specified, a bootable ISO image is created in the file media.iso that contains the Solaris install media. The ISO image  can  then
       be burned onto a CD/DVD with utilities such as cdrw(1) or cdrecord(1). (The latter is not a SunOS man page.)

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -d media-root

	   Top-level directory of on-disk image of Solaris installation media. This is option must be specified.

       -o iso

	   Create a Solaris ISO image of media-root.

       -l label

	   Label/volume name of the ISO image (if -o option is specified). If -o is not specified, the name of Solaris directory under media-root,
	   for example, Solaris_10, will be used.

       -v

	   Verbose. Multiple -v options increase verbosity.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       pkg_or_patch [pkg_or_patch ...]

	   One or more patches or packages (you can have both patches and packages in a single command) with which the Solaris installation  media
	   media-root will be updated.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1 Updating a Solaris Install Image with Patch and Package

       The following command updates the Solaris install image in s10u1 by adding patch 123456-07 and package SUNWfoo.

	 # /usr/bin/patchmedia -d s10u1 SUNWfoo 123456-07
