    Description:
    [Posted on ALEPH-NA:]

    I have just downloaded the new Service Pack. The SP currently
    installed is 1485. When I type the command "util sp" and choose
    option 3 on the Util SP menu (check SP download completing) it
    displays:

    done
    installation file detected
    Service Pack 1613
    Binary SP file found for SunOS-old

    When I run option 5 (Run SP Utility) to get the xls and Plain summary
    files, it creates them for SP 1324-1485, but displays on the screen

    "Your current Service Pack level is 1485".

    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Resolution:
    [From Christine Moulen, MIT, and Al Rykhus, Mankato/PALS consortium:]

    The SP Utility option 5 runs on your currently installed service pack.

    To get the xls and summary files for the service pack you're getting ready to install, use the Install option (util sp option #4). That won't actually kick off installation, it opens another menu with the options you're looking for (including actual installation).
