Parameters

Usage guidelines
Before loading patches, make sure you have saved the patch files to the specified patch file location. If
no patch location has been specified, the system by default loads patch files from the root directory of the

In FIPS mode, the patch file or patch package file must pass authenticity verification before the patch
install command can be executed.
