A couple of things to keep in mind: 1. Patches are applied at the feature level, so that entire feature is patched. If you had separate features you could do a patch install command with a REINSTALL=<feature being patched> which would leave the other features alone, assuming they weren't being patched. A patch is sort of an apply of the changes followed by a repair, so that component is a candidate for re-install.
2. A condition of "NOT INSTALLED" is incorrect because the property names are case-sensitive. Maybe that was just a typo in your message. --------------- Phil Wilson On Mon, Oct 27, 2014 at 6:11 AM, kjk129 <kjk...@coolblue.com> wrote: > I have a very similar problem.
