Yes

2.Why so?
Because this is what the web site advise to do.

Why not Solaris 10 Update 8 or Solaris 10 Update 10 which are likely to have latest versions?
I guess because the is a slight risk some of binaries won't work.

Wow! better answers! I understand this.

but then what do we need to do in order to update Solaris 10 update 7 to Solaris 10 update 10 ?

Do we need to update kernel for that ?

In short I want to know what exactly we need to do to update Solaris 10 update 7 to Solaris 10 update 10?

Thanks a lot!!

So do you mean to say that I need to download all those 6 zip parts, then join them and then make ISO to provide patches?
See attached pic.

Is there any steps that we need to follow once we have these patches?

Thanks a lot!
