Information
About Solaris servers
For Solaris servers, only the following information can be checked.
Applied OS patches (SRU information)
Installed Fujitsu middleware
Application status of Fujitsu middleware patches
It is not possible to perform patch application, parameter setting, or script execution on Solaris servers.
Note
Conditions under which servers are counted as servers with unapplied patches
The conditions under which servers are counted as servers with unapplied patches differ with Windows patches, Linux patches, and Fujitsu middleware patches. These conditions are explained separately as below:
Number of servers with unapplied Windows patches
The number of servers with unapplied Windows patches is the number of servers where the patches authorized by WSUS have not been applied.
Number of servers with unapplied Linux patches
The number of servers with unapplied Linux patches is the number of servers where the patches registered with the yum repository server and have been defined as the management target have not been applied.
Number of servers with unapplied Fujitsu middleware patches
The number of servers with unapplied Fujitsu middleware patches is the number of servers where the Fujitsu middleware patches distributed by Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager have not been applied.
The number of servers with unapplied Fujitsu middleware patches is the number of servers where the Fujitsu middleware patches registered using swcfmg_fjmwpatch_update (Fujitsu middleware patch registration command) have not been applied.
Operation method
Specify the conditions for filtering the information in the server list.
Display item | Description |
|---|---|
Filter | The following filter conditions can be specified. Multiple filter conditions can be specified
|
The following table shows the items that are displayed in the server list:
Display item | Description |
|---|---|
Checkbox | Checking the checkbox selects the corresponding server as a target server for patch application, parameter setting, script execution, or configuration modification. |
Server name | Displays the server names. Clicking a server name link displays the Server Details window. |
Server group name | Displays the server group name. |
Tenant | Displays the tenant. |
IP address | Displays the IP addresses. |
Host name | Displays the host names. |
OS | Displays the operating system names. |
Last update | Displays the date and time when the patch application status was registered with WSUS. Not displayed for Linux patches. |
Unapplied (OS) | Displays the number of OS patches that have not been applied. |
Unapplied (MW) | Displays the number of Fujitsu middleware patches that have not been applied. |
Note
The number of patches in the "Unapplied (OS)" column of this window may not match the number of patches to be applied as detected by the Check for Updates function on the business server.
The inconsistency arises when some patches are provided as part of a cumulative patch. This is because Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager counts all of the patches in a cumulative patch as patches that can be applied, while the Check for Updates function does not count patches in a cumulative patch as patches that can be applied.
For example, if Patch 3 is a cumulative patch containing Patch 1 and Patch 2, then Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager will detect them as three different patches that can be applied, but the Check for Updates function will detect them as one patch that can be applied.
Patches detected | Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager | Check for Updates function |
|---|---|---|
Patch 3 (containing Patch 1 and Patch 2) | D | D |
Patch 2 | D | - |
Patch 1 | D | - |
D: Detected as a patch that can be applied
-: Not detected as a patch that can be applied
If some patches are provided as part of a cumulative patch, Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager will no longer detect such patches in a cumulative patch as patches that can be applied, by having these patches unapproved on the WSUS server.
The following operations can be performed from the Server list window:
Operation button | Description |
|---|---|
Patch application | Select the server using the checkboxes, and click Patch application button. This displays the Patch Application wizard, enabling the user to distribute and apply patches originating from the server. |
Parameter settings | Select the server using the checkboxes, and click Parameter settings button. This displays the Parameter Settings wizard, enabling the user to configure parameters for software installed on the selected server. |
Script execution | Select the server using the checkboxes, and click Script execution button. This displays the Script Execution wizard, enabling the user to run scripts on the selected server. |
Configuration Modification | Select the server using the checkbox, and click the Configuration Modification button. This displays the Configuration Modification wizard, enabling configuration modification of the selected server. |
