HP Stage/iX Commands
are accepted when listing staging areas.
By default the LIST command will display the name of the staging area, the last modified
date, a flag indicating whether or not the staging area is valid or invalid (see
VALIDATE/INVALIDATE commands), and the brief description associated with the staging
area.
In addition, an asterisk (*) will be displayed at the end of the staging area name if the
staging area is active (in use); a caret (^) will be displayed at the end of the staging area
name if the staging area will be used for the next system boot (see the SET command).
The LIST command will also list more detailed information about the files that are in a
particular staging area, and/or the patches that are staged in a particular staging area.
The LIST command can be abbreviated L.
Syntax
LIST [[STAGE=] stage_name ] [;{NOFILES}] [;{NOPATCHES}]
{FILES} {PATCHES}
Parameters
[[STAGE=]stage_name] (optional)
This parameter is used to designate a staging area to be viewed. The staging area name
can be either a valid HP Stage/iX stage name, or a pattern with MPE wildcards. All of the
usual MPE wildcard characters (@, ?, #, etc.) are allowed. The default value for this
parameter is @ (which will list ALL staging areas).
Staging area names are case sensitive.
[;{NOFILES}] (optional)
{ FILES}
This parameter specifies whether or not the LIST command will display information about
specific files within a given staging area. The default value for this parameter is ;NOFILES.
If the ;FILES parameter is specified then the LIST command will display information for
each file in the staging area(s) about disk restrictions (LDEV1, contiguous, or none), file
disposition (add, replace, delete), and the file code, end-of-file, and limit values as they
would appear in a LISTF(ILE) output.
{;{NOPATCHES}] (optional)
{ PATCHES}
This parameter determines whether or not the LIST command will display information on
the specific patches in a given staging area. The default value for this parameter is
;NOPATCHES. If the ;PATCHES parameter is specified then the LIST command will display
the patch ID, date and time installed by HP Patch/iX, and a brief description for each patch
found in the staging area(s).
The ;PATCHES option will not be able to display any patch information if the file
PMSWINFO.PUB.SYS is not in the given staging area. This file is normally staged by the HP
Patch/iX product when the staging area is created. If this file does not exist in the staging
area, a message stating that no patch information is available will be displayed.
The patches displayed will be the sum of all patches applied by HP Patch/iX, which
