You can use "showrev -p|grep 112233" to see if the patch is already installed and to what level.

As for installing patches use the "patchadd" command [man patchadd is very good] + read the installation notes that come with the patch, they will tell you if there are any special requirements [e.g.installing in single user mode, whether-or-not you need to reboot afterwards, what the pre-requisits are].

If patches were installed without the -d option, you can see the list of patches in /var/sadm/patch
