Today we are going to speak of as to manage and to install patches/bundles in HP-UX 11.23 Itanium with the tool swa. I have discovered the above mentioned command recently due to the urgent need to update the systems of the work.
The truth is that it had never heard after nobody used the above mentioned tool, most of managers of HP-UX that I have seen, only they were applying the necessary patches to install the software that was going to run on the machine (p.e. Oracle, Weblogic …).
To start it is necessary to make sure that the servant has access FTP to the HP repositories, in our platform, we have enabled the exit of a servant of development and later we share the patches/bundles directory for NFS.
