Upgrading MySQL IPS Packages on Solaris 11.3 ?

edited Aug 10, 2018 6:58AM in Oracle Solaris System Administration (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered ✓

I'm barely new with Solaris OS and there are still a couple of things I definitely don't get it.

I want to replicate a MySQL installation that someone did in the past in a development server we have. Simple: MySQL 5.6.36 running on Solaris 11.3 installed as a IPS package with its SMF services.

I'm testing a with a fresh new install Solaris 11.3. I did a "pkg install database/mysql-56" (following this simple guide), but the MySQL IPS package installed version is 5.6.25. How can I upgrade it to 5.6.36? Why the latest MySQL IPS Package available version is so old (in fact, I was expecting a newer version, and then try to figure out how to downgrade it)? What I'm missing?
