    Hi, if anyone can shed any light on why I would want to do this using Symantec's patch management solution it would be greatly appreciated.

    It is documented (and I have had these issues confirmed by Symantec tech support) that you cannot update the kernel with it, nor will it cater for dependancy packages (updates requiring dependancies to be installed will simply fail to install until the dependancy is installed first). Because of this I can't see a single reason why anyone would use this solution as I will have to use a SUSE SMT server anyway. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

     

    Many Thanks.
