Patch Recipe

The 10.1-MP5 baseline patch can be installed with the following recipes:

spot --apply=to:step/platform/step-10.1-mp5.spr

—OR—

spot --upgrade=step:10.1*

^*Before installing the recipe provided by the SPOT --upgrade functionality, review the baseline and component versions that the system will be upgraded to before applying. Verify that the baseline and/or components are the correct versions to be applied (i.e., the versions you did testing on—and not a higher, untested version).

For on-premises systems, refer to the SPOT Program documentation for more information, including how to use the SPOT --upgrade command to also find compatible components that can be added at the same time as the baseline patch (--upgrade=all) in the SPOT Program topic of the System Administration Guide found in Downloadable Documentation.
