Privileged User Manager supports two ways to patch your system:
You can configure your system to use the Novell Customer Center (NCC) and use the Package Manager to distribute the patch. See Section 2.1, Using the Package Manager with NCC.
You can download the patch from Novell, install it on a local system, then use the Package Manager to distribute the patch. See Section 2.3, Committing Packages.
During the process of installing the packages via the Framework, you can create a backup of the existing packages that are being replaced. To create the backup, you need to leave the option enabled when installing the patch. Then if you want to remove the update, you can use the option.
