Patch 105181-15 !!

We are running the 5.6 SUN OS

E 450 Hardware and

Oracle 815

I need to apply the patch 105181-15

to 5.6 SUN OS.

I did not see any conflict with other patch

in patch description at sunsolve site.

However, this is OBSOLETE patch.

Anything I have to watch out ...since

this patch updates /kernel dir and

/kernel genunix dir.

How would I know which patch obsoletes 105181-15 ?

Thanks again.

Just enter the patch number <b>without</b> the revision in the patchfinder. 105181-<b>39</b> is the current/latest revision.

I typed in 105181

the 105181-39 showsup.

BUT in the description of this patch 105181-39

105181-16 would obsolete 105181-15

105181-17 would obsolete 105181-16

... and so on, and so on, and so on.

Your 105181-15 is so gosh-darned old that even the list in the current 105181-39 version of the patch cannot be bothered to mention it.The moment a newer revision number patch is published, the earlier one is obsolete.
