Identifying
Installed Software
To identify the software products on a system or media, use swlist. For
example, to show revision and descriptive title of all software installed
on a system, enter:
/usr/sbin/swlist
To list all products and their versions on a DVD mounted at /dvdrom,
enter:
/usr/sbin/swlist -s /dvdrom
To get a table of contents and product details, enter:
/usr/sbin/swlist -dvl product -a readme @ /dvdrom
The swlist command has many options to expand or narrow the listing
to specific attributes. Refer to the swlist (1M) manpage or the Software
Distributor Administration Guide, available on the Instant Information
CD and at the HP Technical Documentation Web site:
