The consensus was what Maccy <maccy at maccomms.co.uk> suggested:
Don't worry about this. That return code means the system is Attempting to
patch a package that is not installed. So if you don't have the package
installed on your system, you can't patch it.
jill.ridsdale at yeg.co.uk suggested:
look at the install log for the patches in /var/sadm/patch/patchnumber
this will probably give you a far more sensible error messages than
error code 8 and probably point you in the right direction.
Unfortunately /var/sadm/patch/109949-01 was not created, nor was
/var/sadm/patch/107149-07
Steve Mickeler <steve at neptune.on.ca> suggested:
Did you read the log file that is generated when you ran the
install_cluster ?
It will be located in /var/sadm/install_data
I read the following in /var/sadm/install_data:
Installing 107149-07...
Checking installed patches...
One or more patch packages included in
107149-07 are not installed on this system.
Patchadd is terminating.
Installing 109949-01...
Checking installed patches...
One or more patch packages included in
109949-01 are not installed on this system.
Patchadd is terminating.
In the 7_Recommended/CLUSTER_README file I found the following:
107149-07 SunOS 5.7_x86: /kernel/fs/cachefs patch
109949-01 SunOS 5.7: jserver buffer overflow
The cluster was supposed to be for Spark; I wonder why it included 5.7_x86.
I may have to reapply patch if I install jserver.
Regards,
Joe
