2.6 OS patch distribution

JP1/Software Distribution can package the OS patches for correcting the problems in operating systems and distribute them to the distribution-destination systems. This way, you can centrally correct the problems in the operating systems in the distribution-destination systems that are managed by the managing server. Since the problems in the operating systems can be corrected in a batch, you do not need to apply OS patches in each distribution-destination system.

This section describes the information you need to know when you distribute an OS patch to the distribution-destination systems.
