Installing a patch step by step

In contrast to the one-step patch installation method, step-by-step patch installation enables you to control
patch status during the patch installation process.

Configuring the patch file location
To configure the patch file location:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Configure the patch file
location.
NOTE:
If you execute the patch install
argument replaces the directory specified with the patch location command after the upgrade is complete.
Loading a patch file
You must load correct patch files before performing any patch installation operations.
If you install patches from a patch file, the system tries to load the patch file from the patch file location.
If you install a patch from a patch package, the system finds the correct patch file in the patch package
file and loads the patch file.
In FIPS mode, the patch package file or the patch file must pass authenticity verification before it can be
loaded.
IMPORTANT:
Set the file transfer mode to binary mode before using FTP or TFTP to upload or download patch files.
Otherwise, patch files cannot be parsed correctly.
