I'm having a problem installing  SRU's to Solaris 11 11/11 on SPARC and x86.  
Only one or two updates get installed when there should be many more.


1.       SPARC system running Solaris 11 11/11 - no SRUs

                Removing this package will result in an unsupported system.

2.       I download sol-11-1111-sru12-04-incr-repo.iso



3.       I mount it on /mnt
    /mnt on /home/download/sol-11-1111-sru12-04-incr-repo.iso


4.       I replaced the current repository with the repository for SRU12.4
# pkg publisher
PUBLISHER                             TYPE     STATUS   URI
solaris                               origin   online   
file:///mnt/repo/<file:///\\mnt\repo\>


5.       I update the OS (only one update?)
# pkg update

6.       After it completes, I check the version and it's not changed:

# pkg info entire

          Name: entire

7.       Only one update gets installed.   Seems to me, on a system with no 
SRU's, and with an SRU that is 2GB, more than one update would install.    When 
I install SRU 1, 2 and 3 on a Solaris 11/11 system- many more updates get 
installed.   Is 12.4 not a cumulative SRU?
