Hey DU Guys,

I've got system maint. time today to upgrade
a production server from patch kit 4 to patch kit 5.
It's DU 4.0D on a 1200.
It also is running TruCluster 1.5
Since PK4 is a subset of PK5:

When I run the PK5 dupatch, will it TRY to install existing patches, OR -
Will it check up front and only install the DIFFERENCES, or new PK5 level
patches ?

I'm worried about the time it will take. I have an hour, and don't want to
see it repeatedly trying, failing (do to existence), logging, etc all of the
existing patches from PK4.

What will it do ? What can I expect ?

Thanks,
