Task 1: Listing All Software Installed on Your System
Step 1. Run swlist to display a list of all software installed on your system:
/usr/sbin/swlist
You can control the detail level of the information displayed with the -l
option.
Step 2. Run swlist with options to display all bundles installed:
/usr/sbin/swlist -l bundle
Step 3. Run swlist with options to display all products installed or all file sets
installed:
/usr/sbin/swlist -l product
/usr/sbin/swlist -l fileset
Step 4. For a cold install, compare your list with the list of software products in
the TABLE_OF_CONTENTS files on the HP-UX 11i v1 Operating
Environment DVD and on the Applications DVD.
