in the Bulletins field.
MS
YY-###, where YY is the last two digits of the year that the bulletin was issued and CCYY:###, where CC indicates the century and YY the last two digits of the year when the advisory was issued, and ### the Red Hat patch number. However, because the colon is a reserved character in products, you must use a hyphen (‑) in place of the colon (:) that appears in the Red Hat-issued Security advisory number. Specify individual Red Hat Security advisories to Patch Management using the modified naming convention of RHSA‑CCYY‑###.APSBYY-##
, where YY
is the last two digits of the year that the bulletin was issued. You can see all Adobe bulletins at http://www.adobe.com/support/security/.APSB-FLASH-PLAYER
. Use this name if you want to download security updates for Adobe Flash Player.<Java product>-#-#-UPD-##
, where Java product is JDK or JRE, #-#
is the version of the Java product, and ##
is the serial number. Example, JDK-1-7-UPD-33
. You can see all Java bulletins at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html.Use a comma to separate multiple SuSE patch entries (regardless of version). Do not use a space to delimit multiple entries; it will not be accepted.
SUSE-PATCH-
####, where the prefix SUSE-
is followed by the SuSE 9 patch metadata filename. For example: SUSE-PATCH-1234
SUSE-PATCH-platformrel-package-
####, where the prefix SUSE-
is followed by the SuSE 10 patch metadata filename. For example: SUSE-PATCH-SLESP1-MOZILLAFIREFOX-1234
Note: As the instance field length in the CSDB is limited to 32 characters, all SuSE 10 bulletins will be published using HP-reformatted instance names that are shorter and easier to distinguish than the actual SuSE 10 bulletin names. The reformatting drops the SUSE-PATCH prefix and reorders the remaining content to move the unique numbering scheme earlier in the format.
UPDATEINFO-platformrel-package-####
, where the entry reflects the entire UPDATEINFO*.xml
filename for the Suse 11 patch without the .xml
extension. For example: UPDATEINFO-SLESSP0-MOZILLAFIREFOX-1234
.Caution: If the SuSE 11 filename contains a comma, you must replace it with a dash (-) when entering the bulletin name to be acquired. The comma is the reserved character to delimit multiple bulletins.
Note: All SuSE 11 patch names are automatically reformatted into shorter, unique names when they are published to the PRIMARY.PATCHMGR domain of the CSDB.
For example, suppose that originally you had only Windows XP computers in your enterprise, so you used -product {Windows XP*}
. A month later, you roll out Windows Vista. If you want to acquire the same bulletins, you will need to run the acquisition with -product {Windows Vista*,Windows XP*}
and -force y
.
If replace is set to Y
, the bulletins will be removed and reacquired, regardless of the value of force.
Y
to delete old bulletins, specified in the bulletins parameter, and then re-acquire them. This will supersede the value for force. In other words, if you set replace to Y
, then any bulletin specified for that acquisition will be deleted and reacquired, whether force is set to N or Y.
