Run updatemanager, subscribe and install patches (service plan # NK20211311). If machine does not have direct access to the web (for example clon20 on subnet 86), configure proxy from Update Manager's login page (proxy server: jprox.jlab.org, port:8080). More information about jlab proxy can be found at https://wiki.jlab.org/cc/external/wiki/index.php/Proxy_For_Special_Networks. Some patches will not be installed by updatemanager, you will be advised to install them manually. Use command smpatch, for example smpatch add -i 121431-33, it will look for patches in /var/sadm/spool/ directory where updatemanager places uninstalled patches. Unless you do manual installation, patch wil shows up in updatemanager window again and again.

Sometimes manial intervention is required, read all messages carefully.

Manual intervention 1: 

Date: 2009/02/03  Perform the following 3 steps in the given order.

2) Update Manager: select the collection "Current Available Updates, after 01/2009"
   smpatch users: run "smpatch set patchpro.patchset=current2"
3) If you are using a Local Patch Server, make sure the patchsigning3 alias is added to the server configuration file:
   Set 'patchSigningCertAlias' property in the file '/var/patchsvr/lps/WEB-INF/applicationContext-lps.xml' to
     'patchsigning:patchsigning2:patchsigning3'
