System shows up, is uploading state, but shows no available updates
I have a system that is registered to use Sun Update Connection. Its registering just fine, and its even uploading its current information.
The machine is missing a heck of a lot of patches, at least as far as "smpatch analyze" is concerned. However, in the update connection the system shows as requiring no updates.
update connection does have the current list of patches, and I even added one with smpatch myself and watched it get populated to the update cnnetion the next time swupas ran.
Any idea why my system is showing no available updates?
Thanks

Providing it's showing as having checked in to the portal regularly it could be that the inventory data is not being sent for some reason. Check that a similar entry to the following exists in roots crontab -
43 12 * * * /usr/lib/cc-cfw/platform/invagent/bin/cc-invagent
Also check that it is completing successfully (ie. no errors in /var/cron/log).
# 2
My cron jobs look like this:
8 14 * * * /usr/lib/cc-cfw/platform/invagent/bin/cc-invagent
20 * * * * /usr/lib/patch/swupas > /dev/null 2>&1
08 2 * * * /usr/lib/patch/swupAuto > /dev/null 2>&1
And the last log entry for the invagent was:
> CMD: /usr/lib/cc-cfw/platform/invagent/bin/cc-invagent
> root 6264 c Sun Dec 4 14:08:00 2005

No errors in either of those files. Here is a summary of my ccr settings:

So it appears that it is finding patches to apply after having run smpatch analyze.
Still no patches listed on the updates.sun.com site as available.
