Use this wizard to download one or more patches from the SunSolve OnlineSM Web site database.

Patch Manager automatically resolves patch conflicts, versions, and dependencies during the download process, and always attempts to download the latest version of a patch. For example, if you attempt to download patch 12345-01 but 12345-02 is the latest version, Patch Manager downloads 12345-02. Likewise, if you attempt to download patch 12345-02 but this patch requires 67890-02, Patch Manager downloads patch 67890-02 as well.

You can use this wizard to download patches for any version of the Solaris operating environment. However, you can only use the Patch Manager software to install patches on machines running Solaris 9. You must use the patchadd command to install patches on systems running other versions of the Solaris operating environment.

Note: You must have an internet connection on your system to use this wizard.
