Maintain a Separate Package Repository for Oracle Solaris 11.4

One way to prevent Oracle Solaris 11.3 or earlier systems from upgrading to Oracle Solaris 11.4 is do not provide access to Oracle Solaris 11.4. Provide separate Oracle Solaris 11.3 and Oracle Solaris 11.4 IPS package repositories and configure publishers appropriately on each system.
