HP Tru64 UNIX and TruCluster Server Version 5.1B-5 Patch Summary and Release Notes (March 2009)

• Fewer patches displayed
Because of the way these new patch kits are designed, you will see many fewer
patches listed by dupatch during the installation process. For example, a partial
listing you see will be similar to the following:
- Tru64_UNIX_V5.1B / Security Related Patches:
* Patch 27001.00 - SP04 OSFACCT540
* Patch 27002.00 - SP04 OSFADVFS540 (SSRT2275)
* Patch 27003.00 - SP04 OSFADVFSBIN540
In the old-style patch kits, these three patches might have consisted of perhaps 20
individual patches being displayed. The difference is not in the content of the kits,
but rather in the way the patches are packaged and installed. In this example, the
SPO4 identifies the patch as belonging to Version 5.1B-2 (Patch Kit 4), the
OSF...540 identifies the subset the patch is included in, and the SSRT2275
indicates a type of security patch.
• All or none patch removal
As with the installation process, if you want to remove a patch, you must remove
all of them. That is, you can no longer select individual patches for removal.
• Patches for Worldwide Language Support (WLS) subset
The inclusive patch kits deliver patches that may be required for the WLS subset.
As with the TruCluster Server patches, the WLS patches will only be installed if
you have the WLS subset installed. See Chapter 5 “Worldwide Language Support
Patches” for information about WLS subset patches.
