Back up your system before installing a patch. 2. Login as root. 3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory. 4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch: cd /tmp sh PHNE_18664 5. Run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHNE_18664.depot By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/save/PHNE_18664. If you do not wish to retain a copy of the original software, use the patch_save_files option: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \ -x patch_save_files=false -s /tmp/PHNE_18664.depot WARNING: If patch_save_files is false when a patch is installed, the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful when using this feature. For future reference, the contents of the PHNE_18664.text file is available in the product readme: swlist -l product -a readme -d @ /tmp/PHNE_18664.depot To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the tape drive, use the command: dd if=/tmp/PHNE_18664.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: PHNE_18664: Based on HP-UX patch PHNE_17434: Note that some netstat options may return inconsistent output when used on core dumps created from kernels with the patch PHNE_17017, the 11.00 cumulative ARPA Transport patch. netstat will run consistently on live kernels with any patch level. An example of inconsistent output occurs when "netstat -rn" is run on a core file created from a kernel with PHNE_17017. The output is similar to the expected output, except that the "Interface" fields will all be "*" instead of the correct interface name (i.e. lan0, etc.).
