Where can I find Solaris 9 - Update 6?
Hi
i'm a bit new at this, but I have spent literally hours trying to find
out where to get update 6 for Solaris 9.
I need this as we are installing Oracle 10, and the pre-requisite
for Sol 9 is Update 6.
I have searched google, SunSolve, access1 and cant find it. All I can find
is a link to archived Maintenance Updates 1 to 4 and I am logged
on to sunsolve when doing the search.
I have found the latest recommended Patch clusters for Sol9
but I am not sure if this is the same thing.
What am i missing here ?
Can anyone give me a specific URL that takes me to the
latest Solaris 9 maintenance Update ?
Many thanks.

Hello,
I need this as we are installing Oracle 10, and the pre-requisite for Sol 9 is Update 6.
I don't think there is something like MU6 for Solaris 9, because Sun discontinued Maintainance Updates some years ago. You can review InfoDoc 46808 (which is slightly outdated regarding Solaris 9. It doesn't contain Solaris 9 9/05 = U8, which only adds support for new hardware platforms) and InfoDoc 79313.
Solaris 9 4/04 is Update 6 (Kernel 112233-12)
Solaris 9 9/04 is Update 7 (Kernel 117171-07)
Solaris 9 9/05 is Update 8 (Kernel 118558-11)
Usually Oracle lists the required minimum patches. Applying the latest patch cluster should be suficient.
I will file an "update request" for InfoDoc 46808.
