Edit a Solaris patch policy

After you create a Solaris patch policy, you can view and modify its properties. You can view properties such as the SA user who created the Solaris patch policy, the date when it was created, and the SA ID of the Solaris patch policy. You can also modify (edit) the name, description, availability, location of the Solaris patch policy in the Library, and the operating systems of the Solaris patch policy.

You must have permissions to edit Solaris patch policy properties. To obtain these permissions, contact your system administrator. See the the SA 10.51 Administer section for more information about these permissions.

To edit the properties of a patch policy:

  1. In the navigation pane, select Library > By Type > Patch Policies > Solaris.
  2. In the content pane, select the Solaris patch policy and then right-click to open the Solaris Patch Policy window.
  3. In the Views pane, select Properties.
  4. In the Properties content pane, you can edit the Name, Description, Location, Availability, and OS for the software policy.
  5. You can edit the name, description, location, life cycle, and operating systems for the Solaris patch policy in the content pane. See Create a Solaris patch policy for guidelines about information in these fields.
  6. After you have made your changes, from the File menu, select Save.
