If you had applied rev 38, then 122231( and it's required patch 121453-02, which would have installed SUNWcctpx ) the package SUNWcctpx would have been installed in the NGZ, and hence 122231 woudl also have installed in the NGZ.
121453-02 actually delivers SUNWcctpx, and on my machine, this gets installed to the NGZ, but you must have the latest patch utils installed. Also, make sure to always run patchadd -a <patchid> before actually runnign patchadd <patchid> the -a will do a dryrun, boot any zones, check any dependencies and if thre are fatal problerms it will inform you, but no software is installed basically it just does a dryrun, it might not find all isuues, but will certainly find some types of issues ( unbootable zones, missing dependencies ) Enda > Thank you, > Phil > > > This message posted from opensolaris.org > _______________________________________________ > zones-discuss mailing list > zones-discuss@opensolaris.org > _______________________________________________ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
