asked on
commands / ways to check if latest Solaris 10 & WL patches are in
Other than asking the Unix admin, what's the commands or ways to
check if the latest Weblogic & Solaris patches have been applied?
Both are said to be applied on our Solaris 10 x86 servers.
I was googling for patch IDs for Apr2020's Solaris CPU but all
Oracle shows are CVE numbers, not showrev's Patch IDs (in
xxxxx-yy format)
Have encountered cases where the patches did not go in.
I can attach here the 'showrev -p' output; for WL, what's the
output/screen shot you'll need? Will provide on advice

My role: cyber governance & we have cases
where few servers are not patched for 1-2 yrs.
Got to check it before audit.
Can share the url to download the specific script?
showrev -p is too confusing:
original question: what's the patch IDs for a given
Solaris & WL CPU (Critical Patch Update) bundle?
Based on these patch IDs, I'll do a search on
the 'showrev -p' (for Solaris) or ??? for WL

Have not had access for a while.... Look at oracle, and your support there was a perl script that used the patchdiag.xref and the showrev -p
To present the information you are after.
Does the organization have a script, app repository.
They should have the script
Unless your setup is for live updates?..

Is pca & patchdiag.xref for Solaris patches only or it
covers middlewares (eg: Weblogic, Struts, Apache
httpd as well??)
