Export a patch

You can export patches to the local file system. However, not all patch types can be exported. If you attempt to export a patch and find that the Export menu is grayed out, that patch cannot be exported.

To export a patch from the SA Library to the local file system:

  1. In the navigation pane, select Library > By Type > Patches.
  2. Expand Patches and select a specific Unix operating system. The content pane will display all patches associated with that operating system.
  3. In the content pane, select a patch.
  4. From the Actions menu, select Export. If the Export menu is grayed out, that patch cannot be exported.
  5. In the Export Patch window, enter the folder name that will contain the patch file in the File Name field.
  6. Click Export.
