Patching has always been a very sore topic in Solaris administration.

Whereas I've used LU on a few occations for those systems with unrealistic 
SLAs, I don't recall having used it on any systems with non-global zones.

The following link has some information in exactly what you are trying to 
accomplish.

I do not have ready access to a s10u2 system at the moment to veryify the 
standard patch levels and if they may be sufficient.

I hope someone else may be able to provide a little more help.

The good majority of these servers are running Solaris 10U2 with non-global 
zones;
roughly totaling 100 servers. Note: These servers were Live Upgraded from 
Solaris 9.

S10U4 (08/07). I am looking for suggestions on how to do this. I am unable to
purchase any solution that SUN offers, although I would love to. Has anyone used
the LU process or know of another way to accomplish this?
