PHCO_16383: - Add verification for new patches on the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List dated September 28, 1998. - The y2koscheck utility revisions 1.10 and 1.20 might incorrectly report a system was not compliant because it did not always recognize patches superseding the Y2K patches were present. PHCO_16048: - The y2koscheck utility revision 1.10 reported it was using the Year 2000 patches dated June 1, 1998. PHCO_15522: - It is difficult to determine if the patches from the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List are installed. Defect Description: PHCO_18132: - No HP-UX 11.00 patches were added to the HP-UX Year 2000 Core Operating System Master Patch List dated April 12, 1999. However, the y2koscheck utility was updated to reflect the new date on the Patch List. - The system name was removed from the output of y2koscheck when the output messages were modified in PHCO_17807. The output messages have been modified to include the system name, again. PHCO_17807: - Five HP-UX 11.00 patches were added to the HP-UX Year 2000 Core Operating System Master Patch List dated March 15, 1999. The y2koscheck utility has been updated to check for these new patches. PHCO_17371: - One HP-UX 11.X patch was added to the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List dated January 25, 1998. The y2koscheck utility has been updated to check for this new patch. - The y2koscheck was enhanced to add the quiet (-q) option to suppress output messages. This option is useful when invoking y2koscheck from a script and only the return value is required. PHCO_17050: - One HP-UX 11.X patch was added to the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List dated December 14, 1998. The y2koscheck utility has been updated to check for this new patch. PHCO_16383: - Four HP-UX 11.00 patches were added to the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List dated September 28, 1998. The y2koscheck utility has been updated to check for these new patches. - If an HP-UX 11.00 Y2K patch has been superseded multiple times the y2koscheck utility might not recognize a superseding patch was present because of the format of the swlist(1M) output. The y2koscheck utility has been updated to properly handle the format differences and will recognize all superseding patches. PHCO_16048: - The HP-UX 11.00 patches listed on the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List did not change between June 1, 1998 and July 20, 1998. However, since the utility reported it was using the June 1 information, it was not clear that the utility was using the latest patch information. The utility was updated to report it is using the patch list dated July 20, 1998. PHCO_15522: - This patch provides a utility named 'y2koscheck' that will analyze the SD-UX Installed Product Database and the /var/adm/sw/patch directory to determine if the patches from the HP-UX Year 2000 Operating System Master Patch List, or their applicable replacements, are installed. - The utility is currently performing the comparison based on the Master Patch List dated June 1, 1998. If the Master Patch List changes, then this utility will be updated.
