Patch Manager Installation Requirements

To use the Patch Manager tool, you must install at least the End User Solaris Software Group of Solaris 8 software. You must also obtain the Patch Manager software from the Sun Download Center at http://wwws.sun.com/software/download.

As of September 2004, not all Sun patches are available through Sun Patch Manager. Such patches include those that do not conform to PatchPro standards, and those that have third-party contract restrictions.
