How to Verify Package Requirements for Patch Management Tools

  1. Verify that the appropriate Solaris cluster and Solaris packages are installed on your system.

    • For the Solaris 2.6 release, verify that these packages are present:


      # pkginfo | grep SUNWmfrun
      system      SUNWmfrun      Motif RunTime Kit
      # pkginfo | grep SUNWlibC
      system      SUNWlibC       Sun Workshop Compilers Bundled libC
      # pkginfo | grep SUNWxcu4
      system      SUNWxcu4       XCU4 Utilities
    • For the Solaris 7 or Solaris 8 release, verify that these packages are present:


      # pkginfo | grep SUNWmfrun
      system      SUNWmfrun      Motif RunTime Kit
      # pkginfo | grep SUNWlibC
      system      SUNWlibC       Sun Workshop Compilers Bundled libC
    • For the Solaris 9 release, verify that one of these Solaris clusters is present by checking the /var/sadm/system/admin/CLUSTER file:

      • SUNWCprog

      • SUNWCall

      • SUNWCXall

  2. If the pkginfo commands do not return any output, you must install the required packages.
