How to Verify Application Installation
To verify that all required applications have been installed or updated,
use swlist and swverify, as explained in the previous section. For
example, to verify that the HP-UX 11i v1 default operating environment
is intact on your system, enter:
/usr/sbin/swverify HPUX11i-OE
If you get an error similar to this;
The product "xyz,l=/,r=B.xx.xx" is not compatible with this
system’s architecture or operating system.
The indicated software (xyz) has not been updated to 11i. To update the
software, mount the HP-UX 11i v1 Applications CD that contains the
software and install the new version using the swinstall command. For
more details on using swinstall, see Chapter 8.
The best way to verify each application’s operation is to exercise it. Open
each application, view a working document or project, and perform
typical production operations (edit a file, print a report, etc.). If the
application does not work as expected, refer to the application’s help or
documentation to determine the problem.
