I am a bit confused now about what to install in order to upgrade from SRSS 5.1.1 to SRSS 5.1.2 on Solaris 10/Sparc. Is it just sufficient to install the patches 140993-07 and 145212-02 that are included in the patch bundle in order to have the same state as a fresh install of 5.1.2? Plus installation of the Windows connector that has a new version number. Is this what the installer will do and will it leave the base installation unchanged?
