Description Jeeva Kandasamy 2014-03-26 07:24:08 UTC 
Description of problem:
While running CP1 patch, if we do not pass any arguments, Error message as follows,
-------------------------snap--------------------------
[jenkins@rhel6-vm jon-server-3.2.0.GA-update-01]$ ./apply-updates.sh 

1)Testing for INSTALL_PATCH_HOME[JON Server|JON agent] directory.
[DEBUG] Variable INSTALL_PATCH_HOME has value [].
The patch location was not specified!
Unable to apply update. Exiting...
-------------------------snap--------------------------

Here customer might get confused, as error message saying "Variable INSTALL_PATCH_HOME has value []." no values. Hence customer try to set "INSTALL_PATCH_HOME" as environment variable.

We might print help message while error, saying like

It can be invoked as follows,
./apply-updates.sh <JON Server (or) Agent install directory path>



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
