Patch 119578-15 forever in applying on an Ultra-10
Patch 119578-15 takes forever to apply. The host was killed and the patch was downloaded by hand and installed in single-user mode from boot up.
I suspect that a process (FMD) would never cease so patching could begin. I don't know what FMD is but I waited long enough to let updatemanger try to patch it.

This patch should be marked as interactive in the patch metadata so as to require being installed in single user mode only (as you did). However it appears not to have been. We will request that this be corrected.
The problem is that the patches prepatch script is waiting on the command "svcadm disable -t -s svc:/system/fmd:default" return but it never does.
If other users have the same problem, login to the system and kill the above command. It will cause some of the patch installs to fail but it will unhang the shutdown.
