4. You have the option to make the patches reversible so you can revert the system to its state
prior to the installation of a patch. The dupatch utility lists the following information. Press
Return at the prompt to make the patches reversible. This is the recommended action.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
To Make Patches Reversible - PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
- You have the option to make the patches reversible so you can
revert the system to its state prior to the installation of a patch.
- Reversibility is achieved by compressing and saving a copy of the
files being replaced by the patches. These files would be restored
to the system if you choose to delete a patch.
- If you choose to make patches NON-reversible, then the system cannot
be restored to the state prior to the installation of a patch; you
will not be able to delete the patches later.
- This patch kit may force a small set of patches to be reversible to
ensure your upgrades to future versions of Tru64 UNIX are successful.
The Patch Utility will make those patches reversible automatically.
Refer to the Release Notes / Installation Instructions provided with
this patch kit.
Do you want the patches to be reversible? [y]: y
By default, the backup copies of the installed patches will be saved in
"/var/adm/patch/backup".
If you have limited space in /var, you may want to make the backup
directory the mount point for a separate disk partition, an NFS mounted
directory, or a symbolic link to another file system.
You must ensure the backup directory is configured the same way during
any patch removal operations.
Your current setup of "/var/adm/patch/backup" is:
* A plain directory (not a mount point or a symbolic link)
By default, the backup copies of the installed patches will be saved in
/var/adm/patch/backup. If you have limited space in /var, you may want to make the
backup directory the mount point for a separate disk partition, an NFS-mounted directory,
or a symbolic link to another file system.
