How to update patches to Solaris 10?
I am seeking help to add patches to Solaris 10 on 64 bit Sparc server. This is to prepare the server for the installation of Oracle 10g. Please list command and specific directory that patches should be added to. Thanks

Thanks. Could you please be more specific?

1. If I download the patch, at command prompt, what is the command to type?

2. If using smpatch, what is the procedures?

For the cluster, unzip it and read the README, for smpatch read the man page.
