They don't. You are supposed to reboot the box.

Oh, FYI, there are a lot of companies/admins out there
that do not subscribe to Redhat support. If Sun
Microsystems has no interest in this field then I
guess the whole packaging/server maintenance for Open
Solaris is a moot point and I would be sorry that I
raised this point here.
The RHEL license prevents use of the software without a subscription
(thanks to control of their trademark). So, I assume you are talking
about Fedora Core, in which case, that's bleeding (hemmoraging)? edge,
or CentOS. Both of those projects are nothing like the Solaris
official release.
