3.2 Definition of Applied Patch Information

Register applied patches in order to manage patches which cannot be automatically collected using discovery as applied patches.

Use the Applied Patch Information Management Command (swcfmg_patch_applied) to register applied patch information.

The functions of the Applied Patch Information Management Command are described below. Refer to "Chapter 5 Command Reference" for information on the command.

Registration of applied patch information

Register applied patch information for servers which have been patched with patches registered using the Patch Information Management Command.

[Registration information]

For patches which cannot be automatically collected using discovery, use the Applied Patch Information Management Commands to register the application status for each server.

Applied patch information is registered using the combination of the server ID or IP address of the managed server, the software ID, and the patch ID.

Specify CSV files in the format below using the Applied Patch Information Management Command. Refer to "Chapter 6 File Reference" for information on file format.

[#]<server>,<software-id>,<patch-id>
...

Confirm the patch ID using the patch information output function. When registering an applied patch for a multi-instance installed software, specify the software IDs and installation locations separated by semicolons (";") for software-id.

An error will occur if Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager does not manage the server or if the software or patch is not registered in it.

An error will also occur if the specified combination of server, software, and patch already exists.

To delete applied patch information, specify a CSV file in the above format using the Applied Patch Information Management Command.

An error will occur if Systemwalker Software Configuration Manager does not manage the server or if the software or patch is not registered in it.

Output of applied patch information

The applied patch information file is output as a CSV file in the above format.

The output destination is the standard output of the command or the specified file.
