smpatch man pages
I have installed all of the latest patches on our T2000. I see that smpatch has some new arguments and parameters. The smpatch man page does not look like it has been updated to reflect these changes.
I do like the idea of the subdocument command (not sure how long that has been there) and wanted to read about it in detail.
Cheers,

Sorry. I agree. My first post was vague.
When the usage is displayed when you run smpatch without arguments it shows subcommands like this..
*SNIP*
smpatch getdocument [opts] document-class/name ...
Where document-class is ReadMe|collection|category|xml|
EISManifest|EISBundle|TLPMetadata
-n system-name
-H host-name:port
-u user-name
-p user-password
-r role-name
-l role-password
-V
smpatch getdocument -L document-class/name ...
-V
Where document-class is ReadMe|collection|category|xml|
EISManifest|EISBundle|TLPMetadata
smpatch messages
-a display-all-messages
-V
*SNIP*
These subcommands are not contained or described in the man pages associated with smpatch. I kinda guessed what they meant and issued smpatch getdocument ReadMe/121118-11 but it was luck that it worked.
My release and revisions are below.
