Hi Folks,<br>
<br>
The issue with patches 14487[23]-02 was a missing requirement on
patch 14700[23].<br>
<br>
Any systems running Solaris 10 8/11 (Update 10) or the equivalent
patch bundle for that release will not be affected, as the required
patch will be on the target system.<br>
Whenever we withdraw a patch we do issue a Service Alert to inform
customers detailing the issue as quickly as we can. Thankfully this
does not happen too often.<br>
We've adhered to this approach for many years now and will continue
to do so going forward.<br>
<br>
Apologies for any confusion that you may have experienced with this.<br>
<br>
The following link tracks Service Alerts for Solaris and other
former Sun products:<br>

<br>
A good way to keep informed about new Service Alerts for Solaris is
to sign up for email notifications when new Service Alerts are
released against Solaris.<br>
How to configuring these notifications is detailed at the bottom of
the above Knowledge Article:<br>
<br>
1. Login to My Oracle Support at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://support.oracle.com/">https://support.oracle.com/</a><br>
2. Select the tab for "More" and then choose "Settings"<br>
3. Select "Hot Topics E-Mail" from the left column<br>
4. To update the Hot Topics Settings:<br>
1. Toggle the E-Mail to 'On'<br>
2. Ensure set "Send Every 1 Days"<br>
3. Select desired format (text or HTML)<br>
4. Set the item limit to some number larger than 5 (suggest
25)<br>
5. Set Service Request to "None"<br>
6. Leave "Product Bugs Marked as Favorites" unchecked<br>
5. Add the needed Sun Alert Filter(s) ** Example: To receive<br>
all Sun Alerts, use the following filter **<br>
6. Select "Add..." (new window will pop up)<br>
1. Add the Products "Sun Software - Generic" and "Sun
Hardware - Generic"<br>
2. Also add the Platform "GENERIC (All Platforms)" for each<br>
3. Check the "Knowledge Articles" box<br>
4. Check the "Alerts" box<br>
5. Select "OK" (selection window closes)<br>
7. Select "Apply"<br>
You should now be able to see the Hot Topics filter you just
set up.<br>
8. Log out of My Oracle Support<br>
