Hi Elizabeth This cluster should have worked, I will check what rev of patch utils is included. The cluster would have installed a pretty recent rev of patch utils towards the start, which should have been able to patch your system. There is no need to apply the patch utilites outside of the

I ended up having to blow away all the zones, patch, and rebuil
