Required
OS Patches and Package Updates
If you use the preinstalled OS, or if you reinstall the OS
on the server, you might need to install certain patches or package
updates before you put the server into service.
Note - Oracle Solaris 11 OS uses package updates rather than
patches.
Oracle Solaris 11 OS Package
Updates
Install an Oracle Solaris 11.1 Support Repository Update (SRU),
if one is available. Doing so ensures that your server has the latest
software for the best performance, security, and stability.
No individual package updates are required at this time to
use Oracle Solaris 11.1 OS with this server.
Use the pkg info entire command to display
which SRU is currently installed on your server.
Use the pkg command or the package manager
GUI to download any available SRUs from: http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release
