You might want to compare the times it took for other patches so that

is ok to run for more time let it run. It took my server 7 hours to
patch 200 patches on a server with 3 zones. Sine you have 13 zones it
might take longer.

I guess you could use "truss -f -p <PID>" on the PID of the
"patchadd" process to see what's going on.
If you have to interrupt the patch installation process, the only
"good" thing is that PCA is using plain patchadd for the patch
install, so there's no extra uncertainty added by the fact that you
are using PCA. On the other hand I don't have much practical
experience about how "patchadd" reacts to Ctrl-C. I think that it
should be pretty save to remove the partly installed patch with
"patchrm" afterwards without causing any ill effects.
Martin.
