What's New in the Solaris 9 4/04 Operating Environment

Patch Manager

Patch Manager manages patches that are created for the Solaris 9 operating environment and compatible releases. You can display installed patches and their properties. You can add patches to one or more systems concurrently. You can remove patches, analyze a system's patch requirements, and download patches from the SunSolve Online service.

The new smpatch command installs patches on a single machine or multiple machines, analyzes patch requirements, and downloads required patches.

See the smpatch(1M) man page for further information.
