There are different ways to do such think I guess. What we do is a fresh install of SUNWcall of the SunOS/Solaris we use and get uname -a > uname.out showrev -p > showrev.out pkginfo -x > pkginfo.out and then run pca against those files. This gets you most patches needed into the proxy. We run this as a cronjob every night so that we get every changes in the xref files. Drawbacks: You have to do it for every Updated Solaris Version (e.g. Solaris 10 U1/U2....). Takes a while to set up. And you might miss a patch for a specific Server Model. But those Patches are not that often. So we get it when needed. Jan
