Maintenance Release into the CD-ROM tray of the primary
System Manager.
Log on to the System Manager as the ntsysgrp role (ntsysadm)
using SSH.
Change to root user:

Change directory:
cd /var/mcp/os/install/images
(The patching script creates this directory. Therefore, this
directory will not exist on systems that have not been patched.)
Delete existing files:
rm –rf *
Copy the installation files from the CD:
mcpCopyFromCD.pl
The following files are copied:
Description
Container for the installation files used for the platform
patching. Platform patch image files are cumulative;
they contain all previously released patches.
Release notes containing a description of the patch
files, how to apply them, and the release level to which
the system is updated.
Checksum file provided for patch file integrity validation.
Exit the SSH session for users with ntsysgrp and ntappgrp roles
and remove the CD from the CD-ROM tray.
Attention: If you are applying a platform patch to a server with
only the platform OS installed, skip steps 8 through 13.
