Keeping Up to Date with the Latest Critical
Patches
After you installed HP-UX 11i v2, you will have the latest critical
patches installed on your system that shipped with the media.
However, other recommended critical or required patches may have
become available after the initial release of the media. You should check
on a regular, proactive basis to see if Hewlett-Packard has released any
new, recommended critical patches.
HP-UX Patching Resources
You should install any additional recommended critical or required
patches to your base OS and applications which may have occurred since
the initial HP-UX 11i v2 install media was produced.
