Time to clarify a bit:

The problem was that all patches that should have been installed weren't.
Don't ask me why
- some filesets of some patches did not install, but the rest of the patch did
- you cannot upgrade software AND install corresponding patches

Actually RC said our method of updating was invalid and I would have to
re-install the OS from media.

As I never re-installed HP-UX since I'm doing the job, I determined incomplete
patches, added those (with more or less force), rebooted a few times (because
some patches won't install together with others), and everything runs smoothly
now.

Regards,
Ulrich
