Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Running solpatch_import
Note In a multimaster mesh environment, do not simultaneously run the solpatch_import command on more than one core system. This action could result in lost data. It is recommended that you run solpatch_import on your core servers, one at a time.
Some Solaris patch management tasks use the solpatch_import command. You must have the following permissions to run the solpatch_import command:
Type of permission |
Permission setting |
---|---|
Permissions on the folders /Opsware, /Opsware/Tools and /Opsware/Tools/Solaris Patching in the SA library |
You must have full permissions on these folders. This is where SA stores Solaris patch information. |
“Manage Patch” feature permission |
You must have “Read & Write” permission. |
“Allow Install Patch” feature permission |
This must be set to “Yes”. |
“Allow Uninstall Patch” feature permission |
This must be set to “Yes”. |
“Manage Patch Compliance Rules” feature permission |
This must be set to “Yes”. |
See the SA 10.50 Administration Guide for more information on folder permissions and Solaris patching permissions.
To use the solpatch_import
command, you must log in to the SA core server as root
.
To run the command, log into the core server running the Software Repository component (part of the Slice Component bundle) and, as root, run the solpatch_import command that is located in the following directory:
/opt/opsware/solpatch_import/bin/
The complete documentation for the solpatch_import
command is available by running the command with the following option:
solpatch_import --manual
