Patch Installation Blocked by Missing Product Subset
Source: dupatch preinstallation check or installation.
Problem: A specific patch cannot be installed because the product software subset is not installed
on your system.
Causes: This is usually an informational message and no further action is required. However,
this message may also occur due to an internal patch kit error that results in an incorrectly
specified patch dependency.
Action: If the specific patch being blocked is the only patch being blocked you can assume this
is an informational message. It may be an internal patch kit error if there are other patches whose
installation is blocked by the patch whose subset is not installed. As a workaround, if you need
one of the other patches whose installation is blocked, you can install the optional Tru64 UNIX
or TCR release subset and reinstall the patches.
