Verifying the HP-UX Cold-Install or Update
To verify that HP-UX 11i v2 was installed or updated successfully, use
the Software Distributor commands swlist and swverify, as described
in this section.
TIP For help with these commands, refer to the swlist (1M) and swverify (1M)
manpages, and the Software Distributor Administration Guide, which is
available on the Instant Information DVD or the HP Technical
Documentation Web site:

Task 1: Listing all Software Installed on Your System
Step 1. Run swlist to display all software installed on your system:
/usr/sbin/swlist
You can control the detail level of the information displayed with the -l
option.
NOTE Delivering HP-UX Standard Patch Bundles
In the March 2004 release of HP-UX 11i v2, HP delivered a Hardware
Enablement (HWEnable11i) bundle and a Quality Pack (QPKBASE) patch
bundle. In this new release, September 2004, HP delivered required
patches in BUNDLE11i. BUNDLE11i supersedes the March 2004
HWEnable11i and QPKBASE patches. Therefore, you may notice that there
are no HWEnable11i and QPKBASE patch bundles in this release if you run
the swlist command.
If you run swlist -i you may still see the bundle tags for HWEnable11i
and QPKBASE. This simply indicates that these patch bundles have been
superseded (but not deleted).
