Patch administration for Unix

You can customize patch administration for Unix to best support your environment by setting the availability flag.

Setting the default patch availability

You can set the default patch availability with the SA Client. The default used by the script overrides the default set by the SA Client. See the SA 10.50 Administration Guide for information about the script.

To set the default value for the Availability of a newly imported patch:

In the navigation pane, select Administration.
Select Patch Configuration.
For the Default Availability for Imported Patches, select either Available or Limited. The default is Limited.

If the patch is Available, it can be installed on managed servers. If the patch is Limited, it has been imported into Server Automation and can be installed only by a patch administrator who has the required permissions (Manage Patch: Read & Write). To obtain these permissions, contact your SA Administrator. See also the SA 10.50 Administration Guide.
