Will the  pca -y -d -a -t 4 command download every patch? Or do i
specify the patches i want?
I would like to specify if possible.
There are the patches I need according to the liveupgrade doc 206884.
They are listed below...I want to install these minimal patches and
then use live upgrade to create a BE, and upgrade my OS..According to
the doc I need these minimal patches to ensure liveupgrade functions
correctly.
So can I do this..
pca -d --patchdir=/a/patchpool 127884 119254 121428 138623 139969
127127 138217 140899 140169 119246 140899 121430 126897 140914 137321
139973 137137

pca -is --patchdir=/a/patchpool


Needed patches..
pca -l 127884 119254 121428 138623 139969 127127 138217 140899 140169
