Hi,

I'm looking for an efficiant way to manage ( OS version & patches aspect
) lot of Solaris servers and clients

Our engineers have Blade100 or other Solaris machine ( something like
few ~200 ) on their desks which suppose to be similar in their
configuration and also we have Solaris servers for the computing itself.

Is there a good way for keeping the machine up to date with patches
except install on each machine the patches every time seperatly ( going
to single user , install , reboot ) ?

I thought of doing them ( the clients - Blade100 , etc ) diskless
clients but every one of them needs a seperate directory on the server
so i will need huge disks for all the clients and also it will cause lot
of network traffic

Any interesting idea ?

Thanks a lot.

I will summarize.
