If you can out /usr/openv/netbackup/version this should give you what you
want.

Naturally, it's packaged differently and although I know I put some
maintenance on within the last 6 months, there is no /usr/openv/patch
directory nor does the support script show anything that I can relate to
being a patch. I may have to ask Sun "How do I know what's on". Thanks for
the advice though. I guess it would be blatantly obvious in the support
script output wouldn't it? I mean, it wouldn't be cryptic and I'd have to
search for it?
