Task 2: Verifying the Installed Software
Step 1. Verify that the basic operating system was installed successfully:
/usr/sbin/swverify HPUXBaseOS
/usr/sbin/swverify HPUXBaseAux
/usr/sbin/swverify Bundle11i
The message “Verification succeeded” should be displayed on the console
at the end of the operation. Further messages from the verification
process can be found in the log files: /var/adm/sw/swverify.log and
/var/adm/sw/swagent.log
Step 2. Verify that the Operating Environment Bundle was installed
successfully:
/usr/sbin/swlist -l bundle | grep HP-UX11i
/usr/sbin/swverify bundlename
where bundlename is the bundle displayed by the first command.
The message “Verification succeeded” should be displayed on the console
at the end of the operation. Further messages from the verification
process can be found in the log files: /var/adm/sw/swverify.log and
/var/adm/sw/swagent.log
Step 3. As an alternative to step 1 and step 2 above, you can choose to verify that
all software was successfully installed on your system by typing the
following command:
/usr/sbin/swverify \*
The message “Verification succeeded” should be displayed on the console
at the end of the operation. Further messages from the verification
process can be found in the log files: /var/adm/sw/swverify.log and
/var/adm/sw/swagent.log
