Question solaris 10 invalid service plan number, grr


I'm trying to update Solaris 10 (x86 version) but it says "invalid service plan number" :/

Does that mean they want money for any kind of update?

Greetingz!

Now that Oracle's at the helm, almost all patches require a support contract. Depending on which Update you're running ("cat /etc/release"); If you go thru the registration wizard, there's a place to put your "Service Plan" number in (along with a few other details). You might as well head on over to their website and at least register an account. You get *nothing* without at least a login now days.

Oracle Technology Network Patching Center

P.S: Patch Check Advanced rocks if you're maintianing more than a handful of systems.
