Last night I used Patch/iX to apply a power patch for the first time.
Everything went smoothly but I am left unsure as to whether or not the
process is actually completed.

I know that this sounds strange,  but  I really cannot be sure that all the
steps have been completed.  After I built the CSLT tape in Patch/iX the
instructions given to me by patch/ix were:

Note: An update IS required to install this set of patches.
  You must:
     1) Prepare the system for an update from the CSLT/STORE tape.
     2) Update with the CSLT/STORE tape created by HP Patch/iX
     3) Re-run HP Patch/iX to complete the second phase of the
         installation (restoring of files and streaming I-Files)

Now, one and two finished ok.  But when I went back to patch/ix to
complete item three there was nothing to do.  Everything is running but I
am left with a vague sense of unease.  At the bare minimum I would
expect to be told that the process is finished.  What have I missed?  How
can I check to see that the process is complete?

Please reply directly as well as to the list.  I am a digest subscriber.

Regards,
Jim
