Patch Downloader utility for Oracle Solaris

The Patch Downloader utility for Oracle Solaris provided by BMC uses a configuration file to download the patchdiag.xref file and payload files from the Oracle website.

The downloader is either solaris_downloader.bat (for running on Microsoft Windows) or solaris_downloader.sh (for running on UNIX). To install, extract the file and place it in a directory on the server.
