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 |

Install patches using a patch policy
Using a patch policy to install a Solaris patch consists of the following phases:
Attaching a patch policy to a server
When you attach a Solaris patch policy to a server or a group of servers, the Solaris patch policy is associated with that server or group of servers. This action does not install the patches and patch clusters contained in the Solaris patch policy. To install the patches and patch clusters, you must remediate the server with the Solaris patch policies.
Note You must have permissions to attach a Solaris patch policy to a server. To obtain these permissions, contact your SA Administrator. See the SA 10.51
To attach a Solaris patch policy to a server:
- In the navigation pane, select Library > By Type> Patch Policies > Solaris.
- Select a Solaris version to display the patch policies in the content pane.
-
(Optional) In the content pane, select the Solaris patch policy.
- Right-click to open the patch policy in the Solaris Patch Policy window.
- From the View drop-down list, select Servers.
- In the content pane, select a server.
-
From the Actions menu, select Attach Server.
-
In the Attach Server window, select servers or device groups and then click Attach.
You can only select servers that are not in italics. Servers in italics indicate that you do not have the permission to attach a Solaris patch policy to the server.
-
(Optional) Select Remediate Servers Immediately to remediate the servers against the Solaris patch policy. Selecting this option displays the Remediate window. This option is only available if you have the Remediate Servers permission.
