As a part-time sysprog, I abbreviate your approach even more. I have no

Do you chase down the prereq/coreq chains by hand then?
No. Unless you use BYPASS for other than HOLDSYS (which I don't), APPLY will
automatically refuse to install anything with missing pre- or co-reqs. This is
exactly the behavior I want. There's nothing required of me to make SMP/E do the
"right" thing.
I do remember that many, many years ago I used to run APPLY CHECK so that I
could see which libraries were going to be affected by the APPLY. I would
inspect the FILE ALLOCATION REPORT at the bottom of SMPRPT and that would tell
me which libraries to compress and which HFS/ZFS to mount read-write. I've since
found it easier to always "blindly" compress everything and mount all HFS/ZFS
read-write in preparation for the APPLY.
