HP Tru64 UNIX 5.1 All Base levels

HP Tru64 UNIX 4.0G All Base levels

HP Tru64 UNIX 4.0F All Base levels

RESOLUTION

Until the resolutions are available in HP Tru64 UNIX
mainstream release patch kits, HP is releasing the
following Early Release Patch (ERP) kits.

The fixes contained in the ERP kits are scheduled to be
available in the following mainstream patch kits:

     HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1B PK4
     HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1A PK6

Early Release Patches

The ERP kits use dupatch to install and will not install
over any installed Customer Specific Patches (CSPs) that
have file intersections with the ERPs. Contact the
appropriate HP Services support channel for assistance
if the installation of the ERPs is blocked by any
installed CSPs.

For alternatives to using the Dupach ERP kit solutions
for the HP Tru64 UNIX Base OS please see the following
Web page: http://h30097.www3.hp.com/unix/AlternativesTo
UsingDupatch.htm.

The following ERP kits are available for HP Tru64 UNIX:

NOTE: These currently released ERPs do have file
interactions with the ERPs provided to resolve SSRT3531
i.e. 5.1A PK4 (BL21), 5.1 PK6 (BL20), 4.0G PK3 (BL17),
4.0F PK7 (BL18) however, they are designed to install
standalone or seamlessly over the previous SSRT3531
patch kits.
