Hi The best practice: luupgrade -t -n BE_name [ -l error_log ][ -o outfile ] -s patch_path "cat patch_order"
NOTE: patch_path = the complete path where the patches are I did it many times and it works pretty good. P.D. Fred ou Cecilia???

I'm reading the README and I notice this : "When installing this patch cluster to an inactive boot environment, the install script may stop and notify the user of the need to invoke the script with the "--apply-prereq" flag to ensure appropriate levels of various patches (including the patch utility patches) are applied to the running system. The patch cluster will not install to an inactive boot environment if the running system does not have these patches applied" What does it mean? With the flag "--apply-prereq", we patching old and new environment???
