PQ51256: REQUIRED SOLARIS PATCHES FOR 4.0 AES ARE NOT DOCUMENTED ON INFOCENTER PREREQUISITE PAGE: AES_V40.HTM

APAR status
Closed as documentation error.

Error description
In order to successfully install WebSphere 4.0 AEs on either
Solaris 2.7 or Solaris 2.8, there are operating system patches
required.  The WebSphere InfoCenter provides a prerequisite
page defining prerequisites:

http://www-4.ibm.com/software/webservers/appserv/doc/v40/
/prereqs/aes_v40.htm
For customers that use the GUI install, if a prerequisite patch
is missing, a dialog will list what is missing.  However, this
is inadequate for planning or using silent install (silent
install only reports an error, without providing the
list of prerequisites).
Local fix
Local fix would be to run the GUI install before doing any
planning to determine what needs to be upgraded or installed
on the box.
