To Patch the Protected Resource 1 Host Machine

Sun Java System Web Server is the second web container used on the pr1.sp-example.com host machine.

Before You Begin

Read the latest version of the Web Server 7.0 Release Notes to determine if you need to install patches on your host machine. In this case, the Release Notes indicate that based on the hardware and operating system being used, patch 119963–08, patch 120011–14, and patch 117461–08 are required.

1. As a root user, log into the pr1.sp-example.com host machine.

2. Run patchadd to see if the patch is installed.

   # patchadd -p | grep 117461–08

   A list of patch numbers is displayed. On our lab machine, the required patch 117461–08 is present so there is no need to install it.

   # patchadd -p | grep 119963–08

   No results are returned which indicates that the patch is not yet installed on the system.

   # patchadd -p | grep 120011-14

   No results are returned which indicates that the patch is not yet installed on the system.

3. Make a directory for downloading the patch you need and change into it.

   # mkdir /export/patches # cd /export/patches

4. Download the patches.

   You can search for patches directly at http://sunsolve.sun.com. Navigate to the PatchFinder page, enter the patch number, click Find Patch, and download the appropriate patch.
