Hi , 
   Is it possible to create a patch list which only list patches which
do not require a reboot using 
the showrev,uname,pkginfo ? 

e.g. 

>From the dir where these 3 files reside 

./pca -n -f . -l missingrs  : still lists kernal patches which needs
reboot . 

Does the -n  option only do exactly what is says 
Install only patches which do not require a reboot

Would be nice to be able to create a nonreboot list as the clients do
not have access to Sun for security reasons . 
I utilize a centralized patching server with sole access to sun .
