The display patch-information command displays information about system patches, including running, activated, and deactivated patches.
Patches are the software that is compatible with system software, and are used to fix urgent bugs in system software. You can install patches to upgrade the system without upgrading system files.
The system can only read information about loaded patches. That is, the display patch-information command displays information only about patches that have been loaded.
If you want to replace a patch, you must uninstall the patch before you install a substitute patch. You can run this command to check whether the system has loaded a patch and the patch status.
