[pca] (Re-)install all patches for a product

[Michael Schmarck]

Hello.

How do you (re-)install all the patches for a given product?

Say you've got S10U5 installed and had originally Sun SSHD
installed. Being a good PCA user :), patch 128318-01 (see
http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-128318-01-1)
got installed.

For some reason or the other, Sun SSHD got deinstalled and
then the original, unmodified sshd packages (ie. SUNWsshcu
and friends) got reinstalled from the S10U5 DVD.

Now the patches (eg. 128318-01) are of course missing.

How would one go about re-installing missing patches?

Or is PCA already clever enough to reinstall 128318-01,
if it is "missing" (it's of course not missing, because
it got installed some time ago but it's a sense "missing",
because the patched files got overwritten by non patched
files).

Thanks a lot for your help and hints!

Michael

PS: SSH and 128318-01 is just an example.
